Job summary
As part of Community Transformation, we are changing the way we manage referrals. We have developed a Referral and Assessment Hub in Wigan and are looking to recruit three Mental Health Practitioners to support the screening of referrals and subsequent assessments within the Hub.

You will provide duty assessments for the Referral and Assessment Hub at the designated base or at a venue agreed with the service user and carer. You will need to be able to travel across Wigan and Leigh. There may also be times when that duty assessment will require you to in-reach into the inpatient wards if a service user is an inpatient at the time of referral.
These posts are full time position and the working hours will be 9am-5.00pm Monday to Friday initially and over a flexible rota. Dependent on service need, the service may be extended in future to cover seven days per week, including Bank Holidays.
Main duties of the job
Key duties willinclude:
- Triage of referrals coming into the Referral and Assessment Hub as part of a multidisciplinary team, providing an onward journey if not appropriate for Community Services.
- Maintain a competent knowledge of community resources available outside of statutory services to support people in mental health recovery.
- Complete assessment for those inpatients who may require a mental health service upon discharge.
- To link in with the MDT and attend a daily meeting to discuss your assessments
- To promote awareness of the role of the Referral and Assessment Hub within local service area/team, GP practices and the wider community.
