This is an exciting time of growth and change within the Oxford Health NHS Trust as our Mental Help Support Teams (MHST) Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) are currently working collaboratively with children and young people, and partners to deliver the Governments Programme for mental health support to be available in schools. In this role, you will be supporting the development of our newly established Mental Help Support Teams; we are looking to recruit a Senior Education Mental Health Practitioner and Supervisor to be based in West, or South Oxfordshire. If you are not trained as an EMHP or CWP supervisor already, we will expect you to have over a year post qualified experience and be prepared to undertake the part time Supervisor training at Reading University, either with the February 25 intake programme. There is an option of doing a 2nd year training for the Senior Wellbeing part of the job role which will enable you to work with more complex mental health difficulties, or children with SEND needs. A timetable of the course can be available on request.
Main duties of the job
On a day to day basis, you will be overseeing the workload of EMHPs, conducting both Case Management and Clinical Skills supervision, as well as holding a small caseload of patients yourself. Typical tasks within this, might include reviewing suitability for treatment within the MHST, gathering information and facilitating onward referrals, and liaising with schools as part of the wider MHST.
