Ideally, youll have completed a Level 2 Diploma S/NVQ in Adult Social Care and are prepared to work towards Level 3 qualification in Adult Social Care or equivalent, a background in person centered care planning and knowledge of caring for people with dementia. Whats essential, though, is your brilliant positive energy and natural ability to get along with people. Youll know what good record keeping looks like and be able to manage your time effectively.

Job summary
Do you want career progression? Do you have fantastic engagement and risk assessment skills? Are you a social worker, nurse or OT? Apply for our CAMHS Crisis Team.
We are seeking to recruit staff with a professional registration (Nursing, Social Work, Occupational Therapy) to work within a dynamic service within Pennine Care. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about working with children and young people and working innovatively across pathways and traditional boundaries to ensure that young people get the right care, from the right clinician/team, at the right time and in the right place in order to improve their outcomes and the families/carers experience of mental health support.
This is an exciting opportunity for practitioners to work as a Band 6 Mental Health Practitioner offering assessment, support, signposting and brief therapeutic intervention where appropriate to young people who require crisis support within our CYP crisis teams which include Home Treatment, Rapid Response and Enhanced Rapid Response-paediatric liaison within the Pennine Care footprint.
This post is based at Forrest House, Royal Oldham Hospital, Oldham, with responsibilities and travel across the full Pennine Care footprint.
Main duties of the job
Pennine Care is currently engaged in a number of transformation schemes across the footprint. In line with the NHS Long Term Plan our CAMHS Care Hub has done extensive work around developing an exciting new Acute Care Pathway for children experiencing a crisis in their mental health. The aim within this pathway is to ensure that at the time of a young person experiencing a crisis our services can respond in the right way and at the right time with the right support to try and keep young people out of hospital and care for them in the community so they are able to experience the least amount of disruption to their lives and the lives of their families/carers. The other aspect of care and support within this pathway is to ensure that in situations where young people have been admitted to hospital that we are supporting them to be discharged in the safest and quickest way possible with the right resources in place in the community to prevent readmission.
The Acute Care Pathway Service Line is made up of 6 diverse teams offering different aspects of the care and treatment young people need from enhanced community crisis services such as Rapid Response Teams and Home Based Treatment Teams, assessment based services to ensure the young person is on the right pathway such as Greater Manchester Assessment Centre and Enhanced Rapid Response Paediatric Liaison Teams and at the other end specialists services such as Inpatient CAMHS settings and Community Eating Disorder Teams.
About us
Your Development and Career with us
Within Pennine Care we are committed to the development of our staff. We have many great training opportunities to continue to develop your career within the Acute Care Pathway including:
- AMBIT (Adaptive Mentalization Based Integrative Treatment)
- Social Work and Nurse Apprenticeship
- DBT skills workshops
- STORM Skills Training (Suicide Prevention and Self-Harm Mitigation)
- Risk formulation Training
Our services are being designed to work flexibly around the needs of the young person and as such this also allows us to extend the offer of flexibility in working across the pathway to our staff. This allows staff to be able to get a diverse profile of learning in many different environments allowing you to use and develop a whole range of skills in working with young people in a number of different settings.

Job summary
Do you want career progression? Do you have fantastic engagement and risk assessment skills? Are you a social worker, nurse or OT? Apply for our CAMHS Crisis Team.
We are seeking to recruit staff with a professional registration (Nursing, Social Work, Occupational Therapy) to work within a dynamic service within Pennine Care. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about working with children and young people and working innovatively across pathways and traditional boundaries to ensure that young people get the right care, from the right clinician/team, at the right time and in the right place in order to improve their outcomes and the families/carers experience of mental health support.
This is an exciting opportunity for practitioners to work as a Band 6 Mental Health Practitioner offering assessment, support, signposting and brief therapeutic intervention where appropriate to young people who require crisis support within our CYP crisis teams which include Home Treatment, Rapid Response and Enhanced Rapid Response-paediatric liaison within the Pennine Care footprint.
This post is based at Heathfield House, Stockport, with responsibilities and travel across the full Pennine Care footprint.
Main duties of the job
Pennine Care is currently engaged in a number of transformation schemes across the footprint. In line with the NHS Long Term Plan our CAMHS Care Hub has done extensive work around developing an exciting new Acute Care Pathway for children experiencing a crisis in their mental health. The aim within this pathway is to ensure that at the time of a young person experiencing a crisis our services can respond in the right way and at the right time with the right support to try and keep young people out of hospital and care for them in the community so they are able to experience the least amount of disruption to their lives and the lives of their families/carers. The other aspect of care and support within this pathway is to ensure that in situations where young people have been admitted to hospital that we are supporting them to be discharged in the safest and quickest way possible with the right resources in place in the community to prevent readmission.
The Acute Care Pathway Service Line is made up of 6 diverse teams offering different aspects of the care and treatment young people need from enhanced community crisis services such as Rapid Response Teams and Home Based Treatment Teams, assessment based services to ensure the young person is on the right pathway such as Greater Manchester Assessment Centre and Enhanced Rapid Response Paediatric Liaison Teams and at the other end specialists services such as Inpatient CAMHS settings and Community Eating Disorder Teams.
