Job description

The Junction is an out of hours service, open 365 evenings a year, to support and assist individuals experiencing a mental health concern. The aim is to alleviate the need for people in the Swindon locality to access A&E acute mental health services and primary care GP services unnecessarily by managing the presenting symptoms/mental health crisis along with the triggers and context for that crisis. 

As an Acute Mental Health Practitioner, you will be providing a preventative, person centred approach to people accessing the service who may be experiencing a mental health crisis.   

The service is open from 4PM-11PM, 365 days a year so this position will include some weekends and bank holidays. 

 
What You'll Do: 
 

  • Innovation and Empowerment: Channel your passion into providing evidence-based interventions, elevating the mental health and emotional well-being of the people we serve, while opening doors to life's possibilities. 

 

  • Effective Partnerships:  Ensure effective and appropriate communication with all individuals, staff, community agencies and partner organisations.  

 

Why Join Us: 

  • Impact Matters: Join a team where your work directly transforms lives and contributes to a healthier community. 

  • Personal Growth: We offer professional development opportunities that will enrich your career and help shape the future of mental health services in Swindon. 

  • Collaborative Culture: Work alongside like-minded individuals who share your passion for making a meaningful impact. 

Together, we can build a brighter, healthier future for Swindon. Your leadership can make all the difference.
