  <h3>Main duties of the job</h3>
  <p>This opportunity would be perfect for someone who has relevant forensic experience with a keen interest in learning disabilities and autism.</p>
<p>This role is focused on providing appropriate, effective interventions and treatments, including administering depots to people with Forensic LD&amp;A needs, their carers (including friends and relatives) and their supporters in the community, enabling and assisting them to meet daily health, social care and well being needs, in line with personal recovery goals, and facilitating engagement with mainstream services. The post holder may also be required to provide support, advice and supervision to team members and other mental health and CLDT teams.</p>
<p>Always under the overarching framework of CPA, the post holder will be responsible for the ongoing assessment, planning delivery and review of activities and interventions against identified health, social care and well being needs, acting as care coordinator for a defined group of service users. The role will also require undertaking and delivering specific health or social care assessments and interventions, including identified service users on other caseloads. This maybe either on a one to one basis, or as part of a group activity.</p>
<p>It is an essential requirement that applicants have a driving licence and their own personal transport.</p>
