SOAMHS Intensive Support Practitioner - OT or RMN

We are looking for Band 6 OTs and RMNs to fill the role of Intensive Support Practitioner and to join us and be at the forefront of leading the community transformation changes. As part of our community transformation plans we are starting to develop our Neighbourhood Mental Health Teams. For Specialist Older Adult services there will be 5 teams across East Sussex with a range of multi disciplinary professionals in each team who will provide assessment, treatment and interventions including the provision of intensive support and treatment to enable people to receive care and treatment in their home setting and avoid the need for hospital admissions., As an Intensive Support Practitioner you will be working closely with other professionals in the multi disciplinary team and managers to develop the intensive support and intervention function of the team whilst supporting the community transformation agenda. The aim of providing intensive support and interventions is to enable people to receive care in their own homes and avoid admission to hospital. You will have access to local clinical and professional supervision, regular training and personal development opportunities.

In return, you will bring us commitment, enthusiasm and the ability to work as part of an innovative service that is always looking for ways to improve the care it delivers. Joining the Trust, you would become part of a network of professional nursing and OT staff working with older adults and people with dementia (and their carers) and have the opportunity to network with, and learn from, colleagues in similar roles across the Trust.
