The Hospital:
The Royal Children's Hospital's (RCH) Vision is "A world where all kids thrive".
RCH is a cornerstone member of the Melbourne Children's Campus, partnering with Murdoch Children's Research Institute, The University of Melbourne Department of Paediatrics and The Royal Children's Hospital Foundation.
RCH has cared for the children and young people of Victoria for more than 150 years since it was founded in 1870. A full range of paediatrics and adolescent health services are provided plus tertiary and quaternary care for the most critically ill and medically complex patients in Victoria, Tasmania, southern NSW and other states around Australia and overseas. The Hospital has more than 6,000 staff, a budget of $850M, 12 wards and 350 beds. Annually, the RCH has 300,000+ Specialist Clinic appointments, 90,000+ Emergency Department presentations and 20,000 elective surgeries.
The RCH is committed to the Child Safe Standards.
RCH enjoys high employee engagement and is committed to staff safety and a positive culture through enactment of our Compact.
For further Information on RCH is available here.
The Role:
This is a new ongoing, part-time (0.5) position for a Senior Mental Health Clinician to work alongside a Team Coordinator and Grade 2 clinicians in the Brimbank Melton Children's Health and Wellbeing Local. As well as immediately working directly with families, the Senior Mental Health Clinician will assist the Team Coordinator with service development and support a multi-disciplinary team to provide excellence care to infants and children aged 0-11 years.
The Royal Commission into Victoria's Mental Health System's final report was released in March 2021. It set out a blueprint for a future mental health and wellbeing system in Victoria to be achieved through a series of structural, cultural and clinical reforms to be implemented over ten years.
One of these major reforms was to create Local Mental Health and Wellbeing Services – a fourth tier in a new six tier system. Local Mental Health and Wellbeing Services provide treatment, care and support for Victorians with mild to moderate mental health challenges – delivering secondary care services across Victoria. Recommendation 19.3 of the Final Report is to establish three Infant, Child and Family Health and Wellbeing Hubs, as the first Local Mental Health and Wellbeing Services for infants and children aged 0-11 and their families.
One of these first three hubs will be located in Brimbank Melton and the RCH Mental Health Service has been chosen to provide the mental health component of the hub. These hubs will help infants and children aged 0-11 who are experiencing emotional, social and/or behavioural issues. The hubs have a low barrier to entry and are designed to be non-stigmatising, accepting referrals directly from families, as well as health, educational and social services professionals. With RCH Mental Health Service delivering the mental health services in the Brimbank Melton hub, this will mean that there is full integration between secondary care and tertiary services in Brimbank Melton, allowing families to seamlessly move up and down the tiers of the system as their mental health challenges change.
The RCH Mental Health Service has a significant learning and development program and invests in supporting our staff to pursue their professional practice, carers and passions.
