Would you thrive in a role where you work with a relatively small, but complex caseload? If so, our Band 4 STR role in our the Brighton and Hove Community Rehab Team (CRT) may be the role for you! Brighton CRT is seeking a highly motivated and skilled Band 4 STR worker full time (37.5 hours 9-5 Mon-Fri). This post involves occasional weekend working. Time owing for weekend work will be taken back during the week. We can negotiate flexible hours if required. We are a multi-disciplinary team consisting of Social Workers, Nurses, Occupational Therapists, a Psychologist, Psychiatrists, Support Workers, and a Pharmacy Technician. We operate creatively and flexibly, sharing responsibility for risk management to support service users with a primary diagnosis of psychosis. We run groups for service users and adopt a biopsychosocial approach. The Brighton & Hove Community Rehabilitation Pathway offers high-quality, safe, and effective rehabilitation for adults with psychosis and complex mental disorders. The team collaborates with patients, supporting meaningful recovery, improving quality of life, and enabling social inclusion and participation in the wider community. The service operates both short-term pathways, offering temporary community rehabilitation for up to 16 weeks, and long-term pathways, providing input for a minimum of 3 years. ### Main duties of the job The Brighton CRS works with individuals who present with complex needs, including severe & enduring mental health needs, substance misuse, forensic issues and housing difficulties and may have often had unsuccessful working relationships with mental health services in the past. The work we do with this group is so crucial and the job satisfaction we receive when we make a breakthrough with patients is incredible. Your role will involve supporting Lead Practitioners with their relatively small, yet complex caseload. You will undertake duty tasks including supporting patients with rehabilitation goals, but also patients struggling to develop relationships with professionals, who may be in crisis and with medication related matters. Your role will also involve supporting with running of groups and providing long term social and practical support to service users by building up long term relationships with them. Optionally, we would like a support worker who is willing to undertake venepuncture training and support with physical health checks. ### Detailed job description and main responsibilities Please see the attached Job Description and Person Specification for the full details on the role.
