We are currently seeking Registered Mental Health Nurses to become part of our dedicated Community Mental Health Team.

Our goal is to deliver patient-centred care of the highest quality, while supporting our staff in their roles and fostering their professional growth.

We are looking for someone who works well in a team, but also has the ability to work independently using their own initiative. The successful candidate will have excellent interpersonal skills, a strong understanding of mental health and the impact this can have on a person’s wellbeing.
You will need to be organized, flexible and committed to delivering the highest possible care to our client group. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, as well as good lT skills, are essential. Ideally, you will have experience working in adult mental health services and understand the challenges that working with this client group brings. However, if you have transferrable skills and are motivated to learn about our client group we would encourage you to apply.
We can offer you regular supervision and Personal Development Reviews and ongoing professional development through training (including the possibility of applying for AMHP training).
