2 weeks ago


Brisbane, Australia Queensland Government Full time

The Clinician (Program Specialist) is expected to promote and model the use of evidence based, person centred approaches to work directly with individual clients in the facility and collaborate with other members of the Clinical Services Team and Operational Services Team.

The Clinician (Program Specialist) is required to be lifelong learners who are able to retain currency in forensic disability services and actively pursue professional development.

Plan, facilitate, implement and evaluate treatment and habilitation programs and interventions that aim to increase positive behaviours, reduce offending behaviours, improve quality of life and work towards a transition back to the community.
Support an evidenced based clinical environment, by:

- Ensuring interventions are consistent with evidenced based practice and are congruent with recommendations in the Individual Development Plan as approved by the relevant Senior Practitioner
- Assessing client risk, responsivity and needs and developing appropriate treatment adaptation.
- Establishing a therapeutic alliance with clients to, in part, prepare them for participation in recommended treatment.
- Communicating and interacting with clients in ways that are respectful, culturally sensitive, encourage personal choice and protect rights and dignity.
- Effectively responding to and supporting clients to develop positive alternatives to engaging in offending behaviour.

As a member of the Clinical Support team, develop, administer and review:

- client assessments including the use of a range of psychometric tools and forensic risk assessments.
- individual development plans (as requested by the relevant Clinical Team Leader) and rehabilitation and/or habilitation programs in the facility and out in the community.
- transition plans from the secure facility back to the community.

Prepare assessment reports, individual plans, undertake administrative tasks and data collection as required and contribute to the development of submissions.
Ensure the safety of clients, staff and visitors and the security of the facility, duress response duties and participate in the management of challenging and aggressive behaviour.
It is vital that Clinicians have the ability to be emotionally resilient and demonstrate perseverance in achieving objectives and coping effectively with setbacks, challenges and incidents.
Adhere to policies, procedures and operational practices that drive clinical governance and multidisciplinary practice, work within the legislative framework that governs the forensic disability service, and participate in identifying, developing, and implementing continuous improvement activities to improve service delivery.
Participate in individual time and performance and development agreements to ensure ongoing development and provision of high-quality services to clients.
Collaborate with key stakeholders to develop, implement, and evaluate a positive behaviour support response for adults with a disability.
Provide timely information to relevant Clinical Team Leader in relation to each client's participation in programs for case management.
Ensure records and information for the Forensic Disability Act Information System (FDAIS) are accurate and current.
