You will provide clinical advice and support to the administrative team, offer supervision to junior staff, and provide monthly clinical supervision to embedded VSCE colleagues. You will recognise your own limitations, seek supervision when required, and attend management, professional, safeguarding, tribunal, ward round and discharge planning meetings as directed.
The role includes providing monthly initial assessment slots (urgent and routine), completing clinical risk and mental health assessments, formulation and short-term contingency planning, and managing liaison, discharge and step-downs from general and specialist eating disorder units, including 72‑hour follow-ups and intensive short-term home support.
You will hold a fluctuating caseload for bespoke, time-limited interventions and wellbeing support, including for clients on waiting lists, and work closely with partner agencies to ensure coordinated, person-centred care. Additional duties include course facilitation alongside dietetic and psychology colleagues, one day per week of clinician advisory support, supporting Mental Health Act processes when required, and working within MDT and safeguarding frameworks using evidence-based practice.
