About the role
In this rewarding role, you’ll work one-to-one with people experiencing mild to moderate mental health challenges. Through face-to-face, phone, or online sessions, you’ll help patients explore their wellbeing needs, set meaningful goals, and develop practical emotional coping skills. Over the course of up to six sessions, you’ll empower individuals to build resilience and manage their own mental health and wellbeing more confidently.
You’ll also guide people towards the right next steps — whether that’s connecting them with community services, referring them to specialist support, or helping them find ongoing wellbeing opportunities.
As part of the Avon Valley Medical Practice Network, you’ll be working within a collaborative, multidisciplinary team that includes GPs, mental health practitioners, and Solent Mind wellbeing assessors and peer support workers. Together, we provide compassionate, joined-up care for our local communities across the New Forest coast.
As a Wellbeing Assessor, you will undertake assessments of patients to understand their individual needs and identify the most appropriate support for them, working collaboratively with other partners in the Primary Care Mental Health Service and associated organisations.
