Senior CAMHS Practitioner - LBC CAS

This is an exciting opportunity to join our friendly and highly skilled multidisciplinary Enhanced Community Access Service (CAS) Pathway. CAS forms a key part of the stepped-care CAMHS model in Luton, providing early intervention and community-based support for children and young people experiencing mild to moderate mental health difficulties who may not meet the threshold for specialist clinic-based CAMHS services.

The post-holder will work closely with a wide range of community partners and will be fully integrated within educational settings, Best Start Family Hubs, GP practices and children's services. We have strong partnerships across Luton and are committed to co-production, working closely with our service user participation team to ensure that children, young people and families shape service development.

As this role involves working across multiple sites in Luton, the post-holder must have access to a car or other reliable means of transport.

Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive - so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.
