Job summary
Applicants must read the attached guidance notes before submitting your application for full understanding of the Trust requirement.
This is full time post, but we would consider applicants looking for part time.
We have an exciting opportunity to join an established Older Adult Mental Health Team providing services across Evesham, Pershore and Malvern localities. As a service, we recognise the importance of achieving a healthy work-life balance and are committed to supporting team members to find flexible ways of working that meet their individual needs, while continuing to deliver high-quality care to our patients.
The team's core working hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 5:00pm, with flexibility available around these hours. We can offer either Evesham or Malvern as your team base, you would initially be expected to work from one of these locations while becoming established in the role. Once settled, there may be opportunities to incorporate some home working. We welcome both full-time and part-time applications, with a minimum of 30 hours per week required.
We are a supportive and welcoming team that regularly hosts students and values continuous learning and development. Our service has a strong focus on person-centred care, with particular emphasis on understanding and responding to the unmet needs expressed by people living with dementia.
