Job summary An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Early Intervention in Psychosis Service (EIP) of Nottinghamshire Healthcare Foundation NHS Trust for a passionate and highly motivated Care Coordinator (Band 6) from either a Mental Health Nursing, Occupational Therapy or Social Work background to join our team. The EIP service in Nottinghamshire is delivered through a multidisciplinary team of practitioners who provide comprehensive assessments and evidence-based treatments for people aged 14-65 who are experiencing a First Episode Psychosis (FEP). The EIP team is a community-based service which operates Monday-Friday 9am-5pm. Please note that this post may not meet the pay level required for a Skilled Worker Visa. Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of the band in line with Agenda for Change. This salary is below the minimum salary required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. Applicants requiring a Skilled Worker Visa can determine the likelihood of obtaining a Certificate of Sponsorship against the relevant criteria here https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa Main duties of the job We are looking for applicants with a keen interest in working with the client group served by EIP and a desire to effectively support their families, to join a dedicated, enthusiastic and supportive team to support individuals on their recovery journey, holding a caseload and practising an holistic and person centred approach to the individuals needs and goals.

We provide additional training and support to contribute to the successful delivery of a high quality NICE concordant service, including Behavioural Family Therapy (BFT).
