Senior Mental Health Nurse

The Senior Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist will work as part of the Integrated Proactive Care Service multidisciplinary team, providing specialist mental health support to adults with complex physical and mental health needs living in the community. The post holder will undertake comprehensive mental health assessments, develop and implement personalised care plans, provide expert clinical advice, and support patients to improve their health, wellbeing, and independence.

The successful candidate will work closely with GPs, community services, social care, mental health services, hospital teams, and voluntary sector partners to coordinate care, reduce health inequalities, prevent avoidable hospital admissions, and support people to receive care closer to home. They will provide specialist advice on mental health pathways, risk management, safeguarding, medication adherence, and complex case management.

North Mid is part of North Central London integrated care system - consisting of the NHS and Local authority organisations in Camden, Islington, Barnet, Enfield and Haringey. As with other ICS's, we are working increasingly closely with partners and indeed many of our financial and performance objectives are measured at this system level. Whilst all organisations remain as standalone, statutory bodies we have an ICS infrastructure for making shared decisions and agreeing shared approaches.

We are proud of our staff and want to ensure their training allows them to provide excellent clinical care. We are also a training unit for medical students from UCL and St George's University Grenada, and for nursing and midwifery students from Middlesex and City Universities.
