Responsibility

provide Step 2 1-1 Sessions with patients allocated to case load by telephone, video or text
assess and support people with a common mental health problem in the self-management of their recovery
accept referrals via agreed protocols within the service
provide a range of information and support for evidence based high volume low intensity psychological treatments
this may include guided self-help, group therapy and information about pharmacological treatments
this work may be face to face or via other media
undertake patient centred interviews which identify areas where the person wishes to see change and recovery and makes an accurate assessment of risk to self and others
help to make decisions on suitability of new referrals, adhering to the service referral protocols, refer unsuitable clients on to the relevant service or back to the referral agent as necessary or steps up the person's treatment to higher levels of psychological therapy
there is huge scope for ongoing development of the role
A major part of this role will be to develop and implement a reliable, efficient and effective triage assessment process to screen patients who have been discharged from critical care for our follow up pathway
the post holder will need to be patient-centred, empathic and caring and able to establish a rapport with patients quickly over the phone in order to carry out these assessments
triage assessments will need to explore patients’ physical and emotional functioning post critical care, for example, screening for post intensive care syndrome and indications of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which can be relatively common following a critical care admission
we envisage that the screening process will make use of the trust’s new digital capabilities and so is likely to include a hybrid process of remote, phone and video screening, depending on patient preference and accessibility
this is a great opportunity for an aspiring psychologist or psychological therapist or a nurse with at least one year’s experience post-qualification who is excited by the opportunity to contribute to innovation and service development, working closely with the team
you will be joining a very friendly, passionate and supportive team of 3 psychologists and our multidisciplinary follow up clinic team led by our Clinical Nurse Specialist
these teams work closely together and are committed to the goal of delivering an outstanding follow up service to critical care survivors
we are rated good overall by the Care Quality Commission
the Trust is rated as ‘Good’ overall by the Care Quality Commission. Forensic services are rated as ‘Outstanding’
