A Vacancy at Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust.
We have an exciting opportunity for a Registered Mental Health Nurse or an Occupational therapist to join our new Intensive Community Rehabilitation Service.
The Intensive Community Rehabilitation Team is intended to offer an alternative for up to 50 service users, who historically may have utilised inpatient rehabilitation and other placements both locally and nationally. The team will have the capacity to offer intensive support for individuals in their existing homes or high-quality tenancies of their choosing. The approach will embrace partnership working, whilst accessing community resources within a strong MDT approach. There will be a strong ethos on rehabilitation, recovery and promotion of independence.
The successful candidate will be working with a comprehensive staff team including a team manager who is an occupational therapist, psychiatrists, psychologists, occupational therapists and assistants, band 6 nurses, recovery workers and peer mentors to support the transformation agenda and implement an entirely new service.
This is an excellent opportunity for recently qualified nurses or Occupational therapists to develop skills within an intensive community setting.
