Clinical Team Leader | Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust

Overview

Welcome to CNWL Mental Health Inpatient Services for Children and Young People. Collingham Child and Family Centre is one of six National 7 Day Inpatient settings, that work in partnership with Chelsea Hospital Schools for children aged 5 - 13 years old. We are currently recruiting for an exciting CAMHS Clinical Team Leader (RCN, RMN, RNLD).

Nestled between High Street Kensington & Earls Court, Collingham is a Tier 4 Children’s Mental Health Unit which provides acute inpatient and schooling for young people with a range of complex mental health needs and behavioural problems. The role consists of a flexible shift pattern : Early 07 : 30 - 15 : 30, Late 12 : 30 - 20 : 30, Nights 20 : 00 - 08 : 00. This is a 24 / 7 service. We’re passionate about young people’s mental health outcomes, and strive to deliver first-class patient-centred, safe and effective care. At Collingham you will be supporting children and their families to build resilience, better coping strategies and healthy relationships through therapeutic intervention and structured meaningful activity.

We appreciate that not everyone has provided care for young people in an inpatient setting, but if you’re a Registered Paediatric, Mental Health or Learning Disabilities Nurse, we’d love to hear from you.

Our team is composed of nursing, psychology, occupational therapists, systemic psychotherapists, support workers, ward manager, matron and psychiatrists.

As an NHS Trust we strongly encourage and support vaccination as this remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues, and patients when working in our healthcare settings.

We take flexible working seriously and are open to discussion to best meet our workforce’s work life needs. Our site in Kensington is a 10-minute walk from High Street Kensington tube and a 10-minute walk from Earls Court Station.
