    <h2>Job description</h2>
    <h3>Job responsibilities</h3>
    <p>All Trusted Relationships clinicians work part-time in to Complex Safeguarding teams and spend two days a week based at the Police station with the CS team. This work has relationships at it's centre and being in the Police station is key to the successful delivery of the work. For this reason all clinicians need to complete the Police vetting process so they can gain access to the Police station.</p>
<p>The offer of consultation, staff support and training is developed in collaboration with the Team managers and staff. The majority of Trusted Relationships input tends to be consultation about children and families, with some occasional attendance at other relevant meetings. Regular staff support may also be offered as a group or one-to-one offer. Bespoke training may also be requested from time to time.</p>
<p>The role requires consultations to be written up for the staff and all activity is inputted into a spreadsheet for the clinical lead to use for report writing and service evaluation.</p>
<p>This work can, understandably, be very challenging at times and there is protected time every Thursday afternoon for the Trusted Relationships team to meet on line or face-to-face for a variety of team meetings and external supervision and staff support. There are multiple other forms of ad-hoc support that are available throughout the week.</p>
<p>The Trusted Relationships team is well established, well respected team with passionate, supportive clinicians. The work is always evolving as there is so much everyone continues to learn, both clinically and relationally and also in the process of service delivery.</p>
<p>Please see the Job Description for more details.</p>

    <h2>Job description</h2>
    <h3>Job responsibilities</h3>
    <p>All Trusted Relationships clinicians work part-time in to Complex Safeguarding teams and spend two days a week based at the Police station with the CS team. This work has relationships at it's centre and being in the Police station is key to the successful delivery of the work. For this reason all clinicians need to complete the Police vetting process so they can gain access to the Police station.</p>
<p>The offer of consultation, staff support and training is developed in collaboration with the Team managers and staff. The majority of Trusted Relationships input tends to be consultation about children and families, with some occasional attendance at other relevant meetings. Regular staff support may also be offered as a group or one-to-one offer. Bespoke training may also be requested from time to time.</p>
<p>The role requires consultations to be written up for the staff and all activity is inputted into a spreadsheet for the clinical lead to use for report writing and service evaluation.</p>
<p>This work can, understandably, be very challenging at times and there is protected time every Thursday afternoon for the Trusted Relationships team to meet on line or face-to-face for a variety of team meetings and external supervision and staff support. There are multiple other forms of ad-hoc support that are available throughout the week.</p>
<p>The Trusted Relationships team is well established, well respected team with passionate, supportive clinicians. The work is always evolving as there is so much everyone continues to learn, both clinically and relationally and also in the process of service delivery.</p>
<p>Please see the Job Description for more details.</p>

      <p>All Trusted Relationships clinicians work part-time in to Complex Safeguarding teams and spend two days a week based at the Police station with the CS team. This work has relationships at it's centre and being in the Police station is key to the successful delivery of the work. For this reason all clinicians need to complete the Police vetting process so they can gain access to the Police station.</p>
<p>The offer of consultation, staff support and training is developed in collaboration with the Team managers and staff. The majority of Trusted Relationships input tends to be consultation about children and families, with some occasional attendance at other relevant meetings. Regular staff support may also be offered as a group or one-to-one offer. Bespoke training may also be requested from time to time.</p>
<p>The role requires consultations to be written up for the staff and all activity is inputted into a spreadsheet for the clinical lead to use for report writing and service evaluation.</p>
<p>This work can, understandably, be very challenging at times and there is protected time every Thursday afternoon for the Trusted Relationships team to meet on line or face-to-face for a variety of team meetings and external supervision and staff support. There are multiple other forms of ad-hoc support that are available throughout the week.</p>
<p>The Trusted Relationships team is well established, well respected team with passionate, supportive clinicians. The work is always evolving as there is so much everyone continues to learn, both clinically and relationally and also in the process of service delivery.</p>
<p>Please see the Job Description for more details.</p>
