You will be involved in completing holistic assessments and delivering evidence-based therapeutic interventions to people on your caseload. Managing a caseload is part of your role, however in EIP we aim to keep caseloads to a manageable level to enable our clinicians to focus on quality interventions and increased clinical contact, with an emphasis on recovery.
Main duties of the job
The post holder will provide individual client interventions within an evidenced based person centered care pathway for clients aged 14 to 65 and will ensure effective care across internal and external boundaries. The successful candidate will assess patients with a potential first episode of psychosis.

Risk assessment
Evidence based therapeutic interventions for psychosis.
To use a recovery focused approach to support the client's journey
The successful candidates will ensure that all appropriate and relevant people have been consulted with during every aspect of assessment, planning and evaluation and demonstrate their ability to engage with those with particular complex needs requiring an assertive approach to engagement.
If you are a motivated individual with the relevant experience and want to gain more knowledge and experience in this rewarding service this opportunity could appeal to you. An interest in a whole system approach to care is essential.
Due to the nature of the role, it is essential that applicants are able to travel independently across the locality and have access to a suitable vehicle for business purposes. If necessary, adjustments can be considered in accordance with the Equality Act 2010
