To provide mental health provision in Stoke Mandeville and Wycombe General Hospital. To function autonomously and competently at Band 6 level when undertaking assessments, including managing volume and demand in the busy and sometimes challenging ED working environment and across the wards at SMH/WGH.
Arrange and provide brief evidence-based psycho-social treatments for patients who have self-harmed. Support timely and safe discharge from the wards across SMH and for older adults admitted to WGH.
This work will include working closely with the acute Trust to avoid unnecessary prolonged lengths of stay in the hospital environment, including avoidance of breaching referral to assessment time targets. Contribute to reducing unnecessary inpatient admissions to secondary care and to support and maintain appropriate care packages for patients as an alternative to admission.
