The team of health and social care professionals is multidisciplinary including doctors, nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, and psychologists. We also work closely with service users, and their carers, local organizations including social services and mental health charities, Primary Care Networks and GPs.
The team has close working relationships with Croydon CMHTs and Mental Health Crisis Services. It also works closely with the community addictions provider Change Grow Live (CGL), Primary Care, non-statutory providers like the Croydon Health & Wellbeing Hub and the Croydon Recovery Space, as well as the Local Authority.
The Central Assessment and Liaison team received 1660 referrals between January and December 2024 and has a current caseload of 172 patients. The team receive referrals from a range of services including HTT, Croydon Liaison Psychiatry, social care and Croydon GPs. The service has a 28-day target in which all referrals accepted for assessment are to be seen within 28 days of receipt of referral.
All referrals are screened on the day of receipt by the Duty Mental Health Practitioner. Referrals which require further discussion are brought to the daily Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) meetings where a decision is made as to whether the patient requires assessment by the A & L team. Referrals are accepted and managed in accordance with the NICE four stage stepped care model for mood and anxiety disorders (NICE 2011). This ensures that for non-urgent referrals, recommended interventions have been tried within primary care before a referral is made to A & L services. Patients accepted for assessment will usually be offered a Telephone Triage call and risk screen followed by a face-to-face practitioner assessment or a medical assessment (depending on clinical needs and risks). Referrals are categorized by the MDT as Crisis (contact within 24 hours), urgent (contact within 7 days) or routine (contact within 28days).

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.

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.
