The SET CAMHS Crisis and Therapeutic Home Treatment team offers assessment and interventions to young people presenting with mental deterioration or crisis presentations. As a service, we work within the Thrive model and implement collaborative care plans with our community services and community SET CAMHS team to promote positive outcomes for vulnerable young people and their families. There are opportunities here for joint working and coordinating alongside the community-based teams. Our approach is being developed with a focus on meeting the needs of the young person to ensure effective clinical practice and brief therapeutic interventions, and to reduce risk to have a stabilizing impact within a containing approach. Within the service, there are opportunities for development and training in various therapeutic approaches, and all new starters will be provided with a full induction and opportunities to shadow the team and learn about the various departments/teams within the SET CAMHS model. We also welcome candidates from internal teams who may be interested in career progression and wish to enhance their practice and skillset in relation to this client group. Regular clinical supervision and reflective space are offered to members of the team, and the team operates on a shared risk model to ensure that decisions are made collectively with effective formulations of need.
