Sussex CAMHS is at the beginning of a crucial and innovative expansion, which will see a substantial amount of growth in a variety of teams across Brighton and East & West Sussex.

As part of this expansion we have funding to recruit to a number of new posts in our ADHD service, providing ADHD community CAMHS clinics for young people and their families/ carers.

If you are a Registered Mental Health Nurse, with a drive and motivation to support young people living with ADHD, then our Band 7 ADHD Senior Nurse Practitioner position may be the role for you!

This is a permanent post and is part of a wider, well established Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) in Brighton. The role includes both lone and team working, meaning you will need to be adaptable, organised, forward thinking and a good team player.

In this role you will also take on non-medical prescribing responsibility, within the NMP policy, and contribute to MDT formulation and diagnosis

Your Clinical Work Will Involve
  • Completing ADHD assessments and contributing to diagnostic decisions
  • Leading treatment reviews including assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating intervention
  • Leading psychoeducation and medication initiation groups
  • Holding your own caseload, including more complex cases
  • Liaison with other agencies (school; social care)
  • Supervision of junior staff/ students
  • Responsibility for non-medical prescribing
You will be joining a friendly, supportive and creative multi-disciplinary team, dedicated to providing a high-quality ADHD service that complements the work of our wider CAMHS colleagues.

You will work on all aspects of the ADHD pathway including screening, assessment, group work, medication reviews, lifestyle reviews (school & home), care planning and risk assessment and management. You will also have the opportunity to contribute to service development as we anticipate further expansion of both our ADHD and ASC services.

We provide mental health and learning disability care for children, young people and adults across Sussex and for children and young people in Hampshire.

Working In Sussex
  • Travel easily between coast and countryside, with a blend of picturesque villages and seaside towns
  • Embrace the city life with great access to visit Brighton and London
  • With easy access to Gatwick and Heathrow and excellent railway links across the UK there is plenty of opportunity for adventure
