Our passionate team support those who have come into contact with the youth and criminal justice system with a caring, compassionate, person-centered approach to vulnerability screening and assessment for all those above the age of 10. This continues through to providing high quality community-based interventions to not only improve health and social care outcomes but also aim to reduce future re-offending.
You will work collaboratively with Mental Health Services, Drug and Alcohol Services, Social Care, and your Court and Custody colleagues.
This role requires you to provide clinical expertise, be organised, efficient and will be based within police custody or Surrey Courts for the majority of time.

These will cover mental health concerns, substance misuse, learning disabilities, from which you will develop clear care plans and risk management plans to promote the safe onward care of vulnerable people as they leave police custody, whether they are remanded to a court or prison, or are returning to the community. Although the primary focus is Children and Young People, the role covers Adults too.
Your written assessments and supportive plans will support police and court decision making and respond to the assessed person’s needs appropriately.
If you are keen to learn and grow your skills in clinical excellence, by making a real difference to a person's life, within a fast paced, rapidly growing team, this maybe the role for you.
