As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement whether that’s job share, part time or another flexible pattern. In addition, although the role advertised may have a ‘home’ office base indicated, we remain committed to supporting flexibility around workplace locations. If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.

The successful applicant will be an NHS employee and may therefore have contact with vulnerable service users. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been necessary to take significant steps to protect the health and safety of our staff, service users and those attending our sites. Unless exempt, we encourage and support staff to be vaccinated as this remains the best line of defence against COVID-19.

 

Trosolwg o'r swydd

The Mental Health Support Team is an early intervention service designed to support Cornwall's primary schools in their efforts to support Children's Mental Health.

The support worker role is an exciting  new development to expand our team and increase the number of schools we can reach. The role will cover a designated area of Cornwall (i.e. Caradon / Upper Tamar / Camel Valley / Restormel / Kerrier / Penwith) and the ability to travel to schools in this area is an essential requirement.

 

Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

Support workers will work closely with our qualified staff to deliver specific targeted intervention to schools. A significant amount of group work practice is envisaged and full support and training will be given to enable workers to deliver a selected range of psychoeducational or supportive interventions. Initially this work will be jointly delivered but over time the support worker will feel equipped to  deliver these interventions independently.

Regular supervision will be offered as will opportunities for involvement in project work and resource development

A driver with access to a vehicle  is required and whilst travel costs from a nominated base will be covered a reasonable amount of travel to access schools across the region is envisaged. Cornwall MHST is offered to Primary Schools and an interest and skills in working with this age group is highly valued. 

Gweithio i'n sefydliad

We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health.  We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability. 

We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK. 

Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff. 

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases.  Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner. 

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon.  As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increases the numbers of people who use our services.
