Specialist MH Nurse B6 or B5-6 Development Role

The successful applicants will become integral members of the Adult Eating Disorders Outpatient team and will provide specialist intensive treatment for adults (18 years +) with moderate to severe eating disorders and co-existing mental health needs. The main responsibilities of the post holder will include contributing to assessments, keywork provision, MDT meetings, handovers, physical health monitoring, risk management, care planning, group co-facilitation, and audit., While experience of working with people with eating disorders is desirable, we are primarily seeking RMNs with a keen interest in working in the field and a willingness to develop specialist knowledge of eating disorders and their treatment. As such, mentoring, additional supervision and training will be provided to facilitate the post holders' transition and skills development where needed.

Depending on experience, we have the flexibility to offer these roles as substantive Band 6 posts or as Band 5 to 6 development posts. If the latter, then the successful applicant would begin on Band 5 with a view to progressing to specialist Band 6 posts within 12 - 24 months.
