An exciting opportunity has arisen within The Early Intervention in Psychosis Service (EIP) of Nottinghamshire Healthcare Foundation NHS Trust for a passionate and highly motivated At Risk Mental State (ARMS) Mental Health Practitioner (Band 6) from either a Mental Health Nursing, Occupational Therapy or Social Work background to join our team

The EIP service in Nottinghamshire is delivered through a multidisciplinary team of practitioners who provide comprehensive assessments and evidence-based treatments for people aged 14-65 who are experiencing a First Episode Psychosis (FEP) or an At Risk Mental State (ARMS) for the development of psychosis.

The team is a community-based service which operates Monday-Friday 9am-5pm. 

We are particularly interested in hearing from people with skills and experience, working with adults with a range of mental health difficulties who require complex case management/clinical interventions.    

You will have opportunity to access training, and to develop your existing skills in working within all the relevant Pathways. We are a very supportive and experienced team who work to a recovery and psychologically informed model.

We are looking for applicants with a keen interest in working with the client groups served by ARMS and a desire to effectively support their families, to join a dedicated, enthusiastic and supportive team 

A good understanding of the principles, ethos, assessments and interventions associated with working within an Early Intervention in Psychosis ARMS pathway will be key. We provide additional training and support to contribute to the successful delivery of a high quality NICE concordant service, including Behavioural Family Therapy (BFT).

Training will be offered to equip the person to undertake evidence based interventions for example BFT, psychosocial  and CBTp informed interventions. 

Please note that this post may not meet the pay level required for a Skilled Worker Visa.

Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of the band in line with Agenda for Change. This salary is below the minimum salary required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa.

Applicants requiring a Skilled Worker Visa can determine the likelihood of obtaining a Certificate of Sponsorship against the relevant criteria here https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa
