CREST support individuals within complex rehabilitation to address barriers to discharge, assess their rehabilitation needs and identify how these could be successfully supported in a least restrictive environment. The varied needs of the service users within CRESTs caseload and their long history of support within inpatient environments mean that CREST need to take an innovative approach to support to ensure successful outcomes. The post holder will work closely alongside the existing and developing MDT within the service. In addition to being part of a supportive, specialist team, there is also a strong focus on co-production and multi-agency working, with many of the caseload being supported by private hospital providers, supported living and a range of statutory and non-statutory organisations. If successful, you will be responsible for a small caseload in line with the care programme approach of service users supported by the wider multi-disciplinary team and on a day-to-day basis work within the framework of the team approach. You must have good working knowledge of the principles of recovery and practice clinically in a way that promotes therapeutic optimism and hope with service users who present with Complex Emotional Needs. Assessment will form a key part of CRESTs role, with referrals coming from case managers across the West Yorkshire region for individuals who are within, or on occasion being considered for, out of area rehabilitation with CRESTs focus being on identifying their current needs, barriers to establishing a discharge pathway and making recommendations on interventions that would support them in their discharge pathway. You would also be required to coordinate the delivery of care within the role of duty worker, ensuring the effective prioritisation of care and resources. There will be the need for close liaison with service users, carers and loved ones, other service providers and the wider MDT to ensure high-quality care is delivered. Travel will be required across the West Yorkshire Area. There will also be some travel to out of area hospitals outside of the West Yorkshire Footprint as part of assessment and engagement. CREST was established as part of the complex rehabilitation project with the aim to support repatriation from locked rehabilitation placements and a strong focus on empowering service users and carers in being actively involved their recovery journey. The Complex Rehabilitation project is part of the West Yorkshire Integrated Care System (WYICS) Programme for Mental Health and Learning Disability. Consultation with service users, carers, commissioners and Mental Health providers has highlighted the service user experience and challenges for people placed within Mental Health complex (locked) rehabilitation placements from West Yorkshire. Many people have experienced long lengths of stay in locked hospital placements, are disconnected from a community. Service users have shared very powerful experiences with us, describing a community model as not just about keeping me safe its about building a life worth living. In order to meet the aims identified as part of the consultation project CREST has been working on developing a clinical model which supports individuals on their pathway from locked rehabilitation. This psychologically informed model focusses on placing the service user and their loved ones at the heart of what we do, assessing the need and identifying interventions that are needed to support and empower individuals on their recovery journey.
