Job summary
Please note that this advertised vacancy does not meet the UKVI eligibility requirements for a Skilled Worker Visa and therefore HTFT would not be able to issue a Certificate of Sponsorship for this role.
Are you passionate about making a real difference to the lives of children and young people? We have an exciting opportunity to join the Inspire CAMHS Team as an Occupational Therapy Activity Worker, supporting young people experiencing acute and complex mental health difficulties on their journey towards recovery and wellbeing.
As part of a dynamic and dedicated multidisciplinary team, you will play a key role in helping children and young people engage in meaningful therapeutic activities that build confidence, independence, and resilience. Working within either the Inspire Inpatient Service or the Inspire Family Day Service, you will provide trauma-informed, person-centred support in environments where every day brings opportunities to positively impact a young person's life.
While predominantly based in one service area, you will work flexibly across both settings when required, helping to ensure continuity of care and a seamless experience for young people and their families throughout their treatment journey.
Main duties of the job
Working under the guidance and supervision of registered practitioners, you will support the delivery of creative, therapeutic, and occupation-focused interventions designed to help young people achieve their goals and maximise their potential.
You will encourage and motivate young people and families to participate in meaningful activities, develop essential daily living skills, build positive routines, and engage in experiences that promote recovery, emotional wellbeing, and social inclusion. You will also contribute to the safe and effective running of the service through observation, monitoring, risk management, and accurate clinical record-keeping.
A key part of this role involves building positive relationships with young people, families, carers, and partner professionals, ensuring care is compassionate, collaborative, and recovery-focused. By working across both the Inspire Inpatient and Family Day Services as needed, you will help provide a joined-up and consistent therapeutic experience that supports young people every step of the way.
