Off the Record (Bristol)

Only a few days left to apply to be part of the new cohort of trainee Education Mental Health Practitioners (EMHP) at OTR to expand our offer to children and young people across Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset. Mental Health Support Teams are part of a national strategy implemented by the government in 2018. In Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire, MHSTs are delivered in partnership between OTR and NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (AWP CAMHS). This partnership makes our MHST unique, creative, and responsive to the needs of the diverse communities we work in. Trainee EMHPs will provide high quality, evidence-based support for children and young people with mild to moderate anxiety, low mood, and some behavioural needs. Our practitioners offer a combination of one-to-one Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) support for young people and whole school approach work which includes workshops for pupils, staff training, and parent workshops. Successful applicants will undertake a twelve-month Graduate or Postgraduate Diploma level training course delivered by the University of Exeter with guaranteed permanent employment within OTR on successful completion of training. The training and service experience will equip the post holders with the necessary knowledge, behaviours and skills to ensure that children and young people will have access to high quality, evidence based mental health support. We'll be recruiting to teams which will support schools in North Bristol, South Glos (Yate area), and North Somerset. The start date for this role is flexible between now the 9th of December, to allow the right candidate time to get to know the team and locality. Whilst these roles are OTR vacancies, this programme is run in partnership with Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust (AWP) who are also currently recruiting for EMHPs (In Training). There are differences in terms and conditions across the organisations. Please check the job descriptions for more information. Candidates who apply to both organisations who are successfully shortlisted will attend a single interview and will not be required to interview twice. During the interview process, candidates will be assessed for their suitability for each role independently. To find out more, please follow this link: https://buff.ly/3MCWclS
