About the role
Key Responsibilities
- This will include the assessment, monitoring, and provision of specialist community psychiatric nursing interventions to individuals with mental health needs within the community. This will also involve ongoing risk assessment and the development of comprehensive care plans. You are responsible for coordinating care, including referrals and ensuring that aftercare is arranged in accordance with the Care Programme Approach (CPA). Care should be integrated and coordinated with other services, such as social services, voluntary organisations, and primary care, as required.

- Act upon referrals from General Practitioners (GPs), other CMHT professionals, social services, voluntary organisations, and acute services. You will provide thorough assessments and develop tailored care plans, ensuring that the needs of service users on your caseload are met, with appropriate mental health interventions being implemented, monitored, and reviewed regularly.
- Maintain awareness of safeguarding policies, including those related to vulnerable adults, children, and the Mental Capacity Act (2005). Work within this framework to ensure that the rights of individuals are upheld, and their safety is prioritised.
- Work within the Mental Health Act 1983, applying robust knowledge of its provisions to community settings, including sections relating to compulsory admission and treatment. You will collaborate with other professionals to ensure the Act is applied correctly and ensure that individuals are provided with the care and support they need in line with legal frameworks.
