About MHC (Mental Health Care)

MHC is a leading specialist independent sector provider of mental health, forensic mental health and learning disability services within Independent Hospitals and Care Homes.

Focussed on rehabilitation and support, our aim is to deliver quality services which meet the needs of patients, clients and purchasers. We achieve this by placing emphasis on fundamental human needs such as interpersonal relationships, integrity and dignity.

We continue to invest in the development of new services in response to service users' needs and the demands of the care industry. We remain forward-thinking in our approach to how we can deliver specialist services in new and innovative ways, and we specialise in helping people to adapt and manage their own complex needs and behaviours.

Our vision is to consistently improve the quality, range and resource effectiveness of our services through an investment in people, a commitment to training and the development of new facilities.

Job Description

As an active member of our Senior Management Team, you’ll help to keep us running smoothly – overseeing our clinical practices, and making sure that the necessary procedures and protocols are followed.

Responsible for all staff supervision in the establishment, you’ll personally manage the care team, with a particular focus on registered nurses. You’ll see to it that we’re making the best possible use of our resources and maintaining the highest standards of professional practice.

In this way, you’ll enable us to provide first-rate nursing to our patients - ensuring that each one has an individually-tailored, regularly updated care plan to meet their assessed needs.

Acting as a professional role model to other staff, you’ll participate in teaching programmes and assist with the induction of new staff. You’ll manage our keyworker system, as well as being a keyworker yourself, and will work closely with other managers to allocate staffing levels.
