Come and join the Early Intervention in Psychosis Team, there are 4 highly skilled multi-disciplinary teams supporting service users in the community across Birmingham. We hold true to our trust values of being ambitious, brave, and compassionate and are very committed to challenging individual as well as systemic barriers to mental wellness and social recovery.
This role will provide opportunities to develop generic care coordination, risk assessment, and groupwork skills alongside managing an Occupation Focused caseload, supporting the wider MDT with specialist interventions such as sensory assessment. You will be supported by an advanced Occupational Therapist for caseload supervision. The role is service wide, face paced and no day will be the same. You will have the opportunity to work with 16–35-year-olds and their families, for up to 3 years intensively, supporting them to understand their illness and personalising strategies which enable their recovery.
This is an amazing opportunity to join a well established, friendly multi disciplinary team using Occupational Formulations, Occupation focused interventions and sensory pathways to aid recovery. Members of our team have been supported to developing core OT skills as well as additional specialist modalities such as BFT, BUSS, ADOS, CBTp.
We work on an assertive outreach model so have a flexible, creative and proactive approach to engaging service users and promoting their recovery.
The core features of the EIP model are based on the NICE guidance for young people and adults for psychosis and schizophrenia (2014) and the new national standards for EIP (2016).
