The Role
The Manager Community Transitions Team (CTT) is primarily responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Community Transitions Team. The CTT is one of three services falling under the remit of NSW Community Forensic Mental Health Services. The CTT is a multidisciplinary assertive transition support service that is based in the community but provides prison in-reach services to people who experience complex and severe mental illness who are being released from custody and reintegrating into the community. The CTT develops transition plans to facilitate safe handover of clinical information, establishes necessary therapeutic supports for patients, and provides follow-up community care to especially vulnerable people leaving custody.
The Manager CTT will provide operational oversight, resource management and support to the multidisciplinary team while maintaining a capped clinical caseload. The caseload will include those people who are assessed as higher risk and will be an essential component of managing the service's leave relief. This role will be required to support the CTT in the delivery of specialist transition services that utilise risk assessment and management principles to guide their transition planning and recommendations. The role will also require skills in strategic planning, data collection, budgeting, program evaluation and people management expertise at a senior level.
The Manager CTT will work in partnership with the Local Health Districts, primary health networks, Mental Health Review Tribunal, Department of Community and Justice and other government and non-government organisations (NGOs) across NSW to ensure evidence based, forensic mental health care is delivered.
