Job Overview
Calling all Mental Health Practitioners! An exciting opportunity has arisen to provide your expertise working in Primary Care as part of a General Practice team. This role will be based in Swift Primary Care Network practices in South Bristol.
We are redesigning our community mental health services so that, in future, people receive a personalized, preventative and proactive integrated approach. Primary Care, voluntary services and AWP are working together to provide a one team approach for our local populations, and your role as a Mental Health Practitioner is key to the success of this approach.
This post is open to newly qualified social workers. In line with AWP trust policy, all newly qualified social workers (NQSW) will be recruited initially at Band 5 level, regardless of advertised role banding. All NQSWs are expected to successfully complete their ASYE within 2 years of employment unless there are exceptional circumstances, in which case it may be extended for a further 2 years.
If you have been appointed to an advertised Band 6 role, this will be an automatic progression following confirmation of your successful ASYE completion. If you have been appointed to a Band 5 post, you will then be eligible to apply for a subsequent Band 6 vacancy upon successful ASYE completion.
