The role includes supporting GP practices to monitor prescribing and supporting joint working between the Integrated Mental Health Team (IMHT) and the GP Practices.
This is an extension of an existing programme of work providing joint physical and mental health reviews in local GP practices for people with a diagnosis of severe and enduring mental illness (SMI).
The role will include driving quality improvements through leading on areas such as patient satisfaction, data recording and reporting, clinical supervision, clinical audit and ensuring adherence to evidence-based practice.
Relationship building with Primary Care Networks and GP practices will form an important part of this role. An understanding of these relationships and an approach that supports collaborative working is crucial for the post holder.
Significant experience in mental health particularly working with people with severe and enduring mental health needs will be required to undertake this role.
Main duties of the job
- Work predominantly in GP practices in South East Staffordshire to provide assessment and review for individuals presenting with mental health needs.
- Review prescribing in collaboration with GP practices.
- Carry out assessments of service users following agreed practice guidelines.
- Implement and review care planning and risk management.
- Provide staff supervision to aid service provision for individuals presenting with mental health needs.
- Deliver a high quality clinical service to service users, families and carers in the community.
- Demonstrate an attitude which respects the core values of the organisation and the principles of recovery.
About us
Come and work with us at our award-winning NHS Trust, leading the way for trying new and better ways of working to help improve life for our local communities.
We have around 9,000 staff who provide physical and mental healthcare, support for people with learning disabilities, and adult social care across Staffordshire, Stoke-on-Trent, Shropshire, and Telford & Wrekin. We also run regional and national services, including help for new parents (perinatal care), eating disorders, forensic services, sexual health, and support for people in prison with mental health, drug, or alcohol problems.
We offer great career development for both clinical and non-clinical roles, with ongoing training and support to help you learn and grow.
We are 'United in our Uniqueness' and committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels welcome and can be themselves, no matter their background or identity.

About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.
