We are looking for Mental Health Registered Practitioners to join us and be part of an exciting and innovative new community-based service - He Tāwharau crisis response hub

We recognise that whanau in crisis require more than just a health response and that the first point of contact should not be Emergency Departments or Police unless required. We are designing a service that brings access to key health and social services for people in mental health crisis into one place.

You will join a diverse multidisciplinary service delivering high quality, patient focused care with a whanau ora approach. This will involve working collaboratively with the Emergency Department, Community Mental Health, Home Based Treatment, Mental Health Inpatient Service, GPs, Psychiatrists, Police and other community agencies.

 You will work together with our clinical and non-clinical mental health and addictions staff, cultural support staff and other community support services to ensure patients are getting better health outcomes.

You will join a team who manage crisis situations over a 24/7 roster.  The primary function of the crisis team is to provide comprehensive psychiatric assessment and treatment to people presenting with mental health crisis.

The successful candidate will be joining a department that is committed to continuing improvement for the wellbeing of patient care. You will be innovative, energetic and show clinical excellence.

For those who aren't already living in Hawke's Bay and making the most of what's on offer, you should know it boasts an enviable lifestyle with great homes, superb schools, a burgeoning economy, and no traffic headaches.  Whether you like living by the sea, next to the river, nestled in the hills, in a village community, or an art deco city...Hawke's Bay has it all. We are open to discuss local relocation supports (Must be living in New Zealand).

You won’t find this opportunity just anywhere, and when you combine this with the chance to live in New Zealand’s own piece of paradise, you have to ask yourself “why work anywhere else”? Take a stroll through the Hawke’s Bay Tourism website and get yourself to Hawke’s Bay!
