We are seeking an enthusiastic and creative Specialist CAMHS Nurse Practitioner with Prescribing qualifications and Neurodevelopmental CAMHS experience, to come and work in the socially and ethnically diverse borough of Tower Hamlets.

Tower Hamlets CAMHS is a friendly, thriving and innovative service. ELFT has a strong ethos of Quality Improvement, and we are keen to continually develop our service. The service embraces continual improvement and the wellbeing of staff and has a high degree of enthusiasm for quality improvement and working together with partner agencies to provide the highest quality service to the population we serve. The service includes professionals from various disciplines including psychiatry, nursing, social workers, psychology, occupational therapy, psychotherapy, and family therapy, who come together to provide high-quality holistic care for young people and their families.

This is a community-based post, across the Neurodevelopmental Team and the ADHD pathway within Tower Hamlets CAMHS. The post holder will directly contribute to the positive working environment within the service. The post holder will require a high degree of professional autonomy and self-management and will be required to account for their professional practice through appraisal and audit.

Within the Neurodevelopmental Team, the post holder will provide evidence-based episodes of care, assessments, and treatment to young people with moderate to severe Learning Disability. The post holder will bring clinical knowledge and skills to this team. NDT provides a broad range of evidence-based interventions including an established group programme, Positive Behaviour Support, ASC assessment clinic, Melatonin sleep clinic, consultation to CAMHS colleagues and schools, and direct work with children and their families, which the post holder will contribute towards. The post holder will join committed and enthusiastic colleagues.

Within the ADHD pathway, the post holder will contribute to the assessment and treatment of young people and families in this pathway, as well as leading on service development/quality improvement projects in the service. The post holder will provide assessments and evidence-based interventions for children and young people with suspected neurodevelopmental disorders.

The role will also provide a non-medical prescribing service within CAMHS principally to children and young people with sleep difficulties and ADHD and their families.

Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive - so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.
