Are you committed to improving the lives of children and young people by providing a mental health service we can be truly proud of? If the answer is yes, we'd love to hear from you!

We are seeking to recruit a Clinical Nurse Specialist within our Child and Adolescent Crisis Service (CAIST) in Norfolk and Waveney. An ideal role for someone that wants to combine elements of management and leadership while also maintaining specialist direct clinical work.

We have bases in East, Central & West Norfolk; we allocate a base closest to where you live. The role is peripatetic so you will be required to travel to different sites, therefore being able to travel independently is essential.

You will offer direct clinical work (crisis assessment and individual interventions via intensive support) with children under 18 years that have presented in crisis, alongside their families and carers where appropriate.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you will model high standards of clinical practice, undertake complex mental state and risk assessments, and regularly lead on clinical decision-making. You will provide specialist clinical advice, consultation, and formulation to colleagues across the CYP pathway, (including CAMHS and Youth teams), to promote safe and effective crisis management.

With oversight from the Senior Nurse, you will take a key role in service development and quality improvement, supporting governance, supervision, training, and implementation of key clinical frameworks. You will act as a role model for compassionate and recovery-focused care, promoting least-restrictive practice and instilling a culture of continuous learning, safety, and responsiveness.

About us

The CAIST team has recently been recognised through our Quality and Safety Review Process as being a responsive and collaborative service that has a positive, inclusive culture, with shared vision and objectives. Feedback from young people and families, identified CAIST as an accessible and flexible service that prioritises service user collaboration and shared decision making.
