Location: Hybrid (1 day in office, 4 days remote)
Contract: Initial 3-month contract with a high likelihood of extension

Why This Role Stands Out:
Work-Life Balance: Enjoy the flexibility of working from home 4 days a week, with just 1 day in the office for essential duties.

Professional Growth: Tackle a diverse and manageable caseload that will challenge and enhance your skills in mental health social work.
Impactful Work: Your role is crucial in supporting adults with mental health conditions, helping them navigate the complexities of community living and hospital discharge.

Conduct thorough initial mental health assessments to determine individual needs.
Develop and implement tailored support plans that empower clients to achieve their goals.
Perform mental capacity assessments, ensuring that service user's rights and needs are respected.
Lead safeguarding efforts and provide comprehensive case management.
