Main duties of the job
This role provides rapid, specialist mental health support to children and young people experiencing acute mental health crisis. As a senior clinician within the CAMHS Crisis and Home Treatment Team, you will deliver urgent assessments, formulate risk and safety plans, and provide intensive home-based treatment designed to stabilise young people in their own environment and prevent unnecessary hospital admission. You will work closely with families, schools, social care, paediatrics, and inpatient services to ensure safe, coordinated care and timely discharge back into the community. You will act as a key point of contact during periods of crisis, offering skilled de-escalation, brief therapeutic interventions, and confident clinical decision-making. As part of a robust multidisciplinary team, you will contribute to case formulation, crisis planning, medication monitoring, and high-quality documentation.

Our 4000 clinical and support staff help us to improve mental health wellbeing and meet the needs of the 70,000 people we serve each year. We provide a range of mental healthcare services across Birmingham and Solihull, as well as specialised services nationally.
