Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust celebrates diversity and promotes equal opportunities; we are committed to challenging and eliminating racism and other forms of discrimination and advancing and promoting equality of opportunity in the provision of services and creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We believe that everyone has the right to be treated with dignity and respect.
We take positive action to support disadvantaged groups and also particularly encourage applications from ethnic minorities, disabled and LGBTQIA+ people that are under-represented in our workforce. Furthermore we welcome applications from reservists and ex-armed forces personnel as we recognise the benefits of the values, skills, training and experience that they bring to their work with us. We encourage all applicants to share their equality information with us.

Trosolwg o'r swydd
ADHD services are undergoing an exciting and progressive transformation program.
We have a fantastic opportunity for two experienced and enthusiastic Non Medical Prescribers to join the Adult ADHD Service in Halton and Knowsley.
Our professional and supportive team of consultants, NMP, and ADHD Nurses respond to the needs of adults either pre/post diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
The post holders will carry out initial assessments of service users following agreed practice guidelines as part of a multi-disciplinary team and participate in the shared caseload of the team. As Non-Medical Prescribers, the post holders will be responsible for commencing medication, titration, and monitoring the effectiveness of selected treatment.
The post holder will operate as part of an integrated Adult ADHD team but be expected to be flexible in terms of delivering care within a variety of environments. The team also provides in-reach support to other teams across the Trust, giving you an opportunity to support service users with a range of health needs and mental health problems including those within the neurodevelopmental portfolio. We adopt a shared decision-making approach, empowering patients to make informed choices about their care. The role provides a fantastic opportunity to creatively develop the role and work with senior team members to help shape service improvements.
The service is committed towards the onwards training .
