Job summary
Compassionate, creative & self-motivated mental health nurses are required to help us continue to offer a truly great assessment, signposting and short-term treatment service.
Our nurses, some of whom are Non-Medical Prescribers (NMP), work across the county in local teams. Community experience is not essential as we provide strong training and mentoring support.
We require forward thinking individuals who have an interest in working in a Primary Care context within local GP Surgeries and other Primary Care Teams, offering assessment, consultation and support to General Practice staff and colleagues in the voluntary and third sector.Our nurses provide assessment and signposting to other community services based on health promotion, recovery and socially inclusive principles.
Before Covid we were working from GP surgeries and providing both face to face and telephone assessments. As with most jobs during the pandemic, a flexible approach to managing your work is essential, things can change quickly. We are currently working face to face and remotely.

We have a skilled and dedicated workforce of over 5000 colleagues working in a diverse range of services over 55 sites and within people's homes. We strive to enable a welcoming workplace culture that builds and celebrates civility, inclusivity and diversity, while providing a sense of belonging and trust.
Annual staff surveys, regular Pulse surveys and other engagement opportunities provide our people with lots of opportunity to tell us about their experiences of working with us. In the latest staff survey, 61% of colleagues gave us their views. It was great to hear that:
- 72% of colleagues would recommend the Trust as a place to work, ranking us 1st for Provider Trusts in the South West region on this question.
- 76% would recommend the standard of care provided in our services if a friend or relative needed treatment, also ranking us 1st in the South West region.
- 81% said that care of patients and service users is the Trust's priority, compared with an average in comparable NHS Trusts in England of 64%.
This high-level overview shows we are in a healthy position, with higher scores than average for comparable organisations, alongside a great response rate, indicating good staff engagement. However, we also know we have plenty of room for improvement in many areas. To that end, we continue to prioritise and invest in our commitment to genuinely becoming a Great Place to Work with consistent top-quartile performance in the annual staff survey and Pulse surveys.
