Specialist Mental Health Practitioner for Primary Care

This is an exciting opportunity to be involved in the development and shaping of a major new and innovative approach to providing mental health care within the community, working closely with all relevant providers within the individual’s local community network.

Frimley Integrated Care System is transforming community mental health services for people with significant mental health problems. A ground-breaking new model is being implemented within Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust to benefit those patients within the primary care setting.
We are seeking to recruit experienced mental health practitioners to lead teams in our Primary Care Networks in Bracknell. The post holder will be responsible for working closely with General Practitioners and the primary care team to provide asset-based assessments, brief interventions and care navigation for people with significant mental health issues living in the locality.

If you are an empathic advocate for people with significant mental health problems, their families and carers and looking for an exceptional opportunity to contribute to developing integrated mental health provision and supporting people with mental health problems to achieve their goals, then we look forward to hearing from you.
