We support individuals living with mental health challenges to achieve outcomes they value.
"We're big believers in everyone having the opportunity to live a full life - and we give our all to support people to achieve wellbeing and mental health outcomes that matter to them.
For some people, this means having a stronger sense of self. For others, it may mean nurturing relationships or building the confidence to tackle tomorrow. Everyone has different life goals, and at Neami, we walk alongside people to help improve their quality of life on their terms.
We're proud to support 38,000 people living with mental health challenges across Australia and offer more than 70 services, over 45 different Indigenous lands. These services include mental health and wellbeing, housing and homelessness, and suicide prevention."
As the Clinical Lead, you will lead a team of clinicians and intake officers, and be responsible for providing clinical oversight and leadership to the multidisciplinary mental health teams of the ICRAS.
The Clinical Lead will guide the delivery of high-quality mental health intake, assessment, triage, and referral services for individuals in the community who experience mental health issues and are seeking support. A priority of the role is to ensure that individuals seeking support are referred to a service that is appropriate to their needs and is consistent with the ‘stepped care’ approach.
The Clinical Lead will have oversight of the IAR-DST, clinical assessments, collaborative care plan formulation and execution as well as escalation and crisis support protocols. As a member of the leadership team, you will work alongside the Service Manager to create a reciprocal learning environment for staff, provide guidance, service coordination, planning, implementation, and problem solving as well as clinical supervision to the team. Additionally, you will foster strategic partnerships within the community and have a key role in service development, evaluation, and improvement.
As a Clinical Lead you will have a background in and be registered in Occupational Therapy, Social Work, Nursing and/or Psychology.
