Job summary
This post is a fixed term/secondment for 6 months from start date to meet the needs of the service. If you are interested in applying for the secondment position, you must obtain permission from your current line manager prior to applying for this post.
In this role, you'll provide person-centred therapeutic support to older people experiencing mental health difficulties across community settings, care homes, and memory assessment services.
You'll carry out specialist assessments, reviews, and interventions for people with complex needs, including dementia, cognitive impairment, and other mental health conditions, making sure care is effective, evidence-based, and as least restrictive as possible.
You'll work flexibly across services--supporting patients, carers, and staff while also getting involved in service development and quality improvement.
You'll also help plan and oversee care for patients in both primary and secondary care, including those living in the community and in care homes.

Main duties of the job
The main duties of this role involve working closely with older people and their families to provide compassionate, person-centred support, including having sensitive conversations around diagnosis and care needs in a reassuring and respectful way.
You'll carry out specialist mental health assessments, including memory and functional assessments, and manage a varied caseload across community and care home settings. You'll deliver practical, evidence-based care for people with dementia and other mental health conditions, including care planning and regular review.
You'll support timely diagnosis, manage risk, and respond appropriately to crises. Working as part of a wider team, you'll collaborate with GPs, OTs, psychologists and social care colleagues to ensure care is coordinated and effective.
Alongside maintaining your professional standards and ongoing development, you'll support junior staff and contribute to a positive team culture. You'll also be involved in service improvement, sharing knowledge, and helping to develop high-quality dementia care.
The role includes working within key legal frameworks, ensuring safe practice, safeguarding, accurate record-keeping, and maintaining confidentiality at all times.

Mental Health and Wellbeing Practitioner
Aneurin Bevan University Health Board View all jobs
Posted 22 day(s) ago
Reference: 2387061
Job summary
We currently have an amazing opportunity for anyone experienced in providing support to people who experience mental health issues or emotional distress to get involved in the development of a brand-new service.
At the start of employment, successful candidates will be required to complete a comprehensive training package during the daytime. The service will be operational 24/7 and so successful candidates will be required to work a full shift rotation on completion of the training period.
If you have experience of supporting people, whether that be face to face or over the telephone, and you have a passion for improving and shaping services, we would really like to hear from you.
Please note that the selection process for these roles will include an assessment of competence in managing a difficult phone call.
Main duties of the job
This post is a key role within the 24/7 Mental Health 111 service and will be the first point of contact for people who may require urgent mental health support.
- Mental Health & Wellbeing Practitioners provide effective mental health support to people calling the service who may be experiencing a mental health crisis. This may include triage and risk assessments, and brief psychosocial interventions.
- Working via telephone and video calls, Mental Health & Wellbeing Practitioners will provide effective emotional support for people through the use of compassionate conversations and, when appropriate, encourage and guide effective self-management of emotional distress.
- Mental Health & Wellbeing Practitioners will be able to recognise when a person requires more support than is possible to be delivered over the phone.
- Post holders will work with people from different cultural backgrounds and of all ages and should be committed to culturally competent practice and aware of issues relating to equality, diversity and inclusion.
As this role will be evaluated to understand whether it needs to adapt, successful candidates will also be required to engage in regular reviews, e.g., completing questionnaires, giving feedback, in addition to their usual supervision.
The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this role; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply.

The Service - Liaison Psychiatry
The Liaison psychiatry service aims to provide mental health advice and support to individuals receiving care and treatment at general hospitals in Kent and Medway. The general hospital staff can refer anyone over the age of 18 who attends A&E or is an inpatient on a medical or surgical ward.
The liaison team can then offer advice, support, or a full mental and psychological health assessment as appropriate.

A Band 7/8A development role will be considered for candidates with the required clinical psychology qualifications, HCPC registration and competencies for this post.
Main duties of the job
As a Senior Clinical/Counselling Psychologist in our Liaison Service, you will be responsible for offering high quality assessment and brief interventions with a specific focus on people in distress, related to both mental and physical health conditions.
This is an exciting, varied role with opportunity for consultation, supervision of other practitioners, facilitation of reflective practice and teaching staff in the multi-disciplinary and hospital team.
You will have plenty of scope and support to develop your own practice, whilst supporting the team in balancing the challenges of providing flexible high-quality services, in a way that delivers quick, effective access and meets the expectations of patients, carers and the public.

We are Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust. We care for the mental health and wellbeing of people across Kent and Medway and are rated 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
Our teams support children, young people and adults with a wide range of mental health needs. We also provide specialist services, including all-age eating disorder services and neurodevelopmental assessments for children and young people, such as autism and ADHD.
Because we work across the whole county and across hospital and community settings, we can make care more joined up and easier to access for the people we serve.
Our vision is simple: we are here to help communities not just live with mental illness, but live well. It's why we're passionate about working with communities to make mental health care better for everyone. Everything we do is guided by our values: caring, inclusive, curious and confident.
Join us if you share our passion for better mental health care and want to be part of a team that's working well together.
We are serious about diversity and inclusion, and we are working hard to build this into our DNA. We warmly welcome applications for any of our roles from people from diverse backgrounds, and we are proactively encouraging applications from under-represented communities for our more senior roles, like this one.
