The Brighton CRS works with individuals who present with complex needs, including severe & enduring mental health needs, substance misuse, forensic issues and housing difficulties and may have often had unsuccessful working relationships with mental health services in the past. The work we do with this group is so crucial and the job satisfaction we receive when we make a breakthrough with patients is incredible.
Your role will involve supporting Lead Practitioners with their relatively small, yet complex caseload. You will undertake duty tasks including supporting patients with rehabilitation goals, but also patients struggling to develop relationships with professionals, who may be in crisis and with medication related matters. Your role will also involve supporting with running of groups and providing long term social and practical support to service users by building up long term relationships with them.
Optionally, we would like a support worker who is willing to undertake venepuncture training and support with physical health checks.
The Trust provides mental health and learning disability care for all ages across Sussex and for children and young people in Hampshire.
