Posted 17 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.

Job summary
Are you a registered Clinical Psychologist with a passion for providing exceptional care?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed Senior Psychologist to join our well-established and dynamic Hospital Liaison Psychiatry service. This is a key role within the senior clinical team within the Liaison service.
It is a fantastic time to join the Liaison Psychiatry service as we continue to develop our services to CORE24!
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. By ensuring that an individual's physical and mental health are considered holistically, it is possible for the whole healthcare team to ensure the most effective care is delivered in a collaborative way.
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.
Senior Clinical or Counselling Psychologist - Essential Qualifications and Experience
You will have a doctorate-level or equivalent BPS approved qualification in Clinical/Counselling psychology, with experience in a range of clinical settings, be able to support people in acute distress and hold HCPC registration.
About us
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.
