We have an exciting opportunity to join our West London NHS CAMHS Under 5s teams (one vacancy in each of Ealing, Hammersmith and Fulham, and Hounslow Boroughs) as a Recruit to Train Trainee / Infant Mental Health Practitioner (1 year fixed term), as part of the NHS England (NHSE) funded Recruit to Train Programme in partnership with Anna Freud, University College London, and Kings College London.
We are recruiting up to three trainees across West London CAMHS. The post-holders will be training on the Children & Young People Mental Health Therapy Course and carrying out clinical work in our service to complement their studies and use their newly developed skills. We are seeking highly motivated and enthusiastic mental health practitioners with a passion for working with families and children under the age of 5 to work and train within our service.
This is a training position and so all candidates will need to apply for both the trainee role with our organisation and the UCL Post Graduate Diploma in Infant Mental Health in order to be shortlisted. Please see our Candidate Pack for further details.
You will offer a high-quality service to children age 0-5 and their families / carers, alongside working effectively with your colleagues and liaising with other professionals in the network. Infant Mental Health training will enable you to deliver, under intensive supervision, high quality, focused evidence-based Video Interactive Positive Parenting (VIPP) individual and Incredible Years group interventions for children age 0-5 and their parents or carers. The training will equip those in post to develop and operate effectively in an inclusive, value-driven mental health service and team working specifically with children age 0-5 years old. The roles will be exciting and varied, including individual and group working in a CAMHS setting and also working in community Family Hub settings, offering consultation and support to parents and professionals. The development role enables the post holders to develop a range of clinical skills and experience whilst studying for a Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Infant Mental Health. The post provides excellent opportunities for professional development and regular supervision.
