About the Adolescent Inpatient Unit
The Adolescent Inpatient Unit (AIPU) is a small 11-bed inpatient unit located at the Austin Hospital that works closely with young people and their carers to achieve positive outcomes in all areas of functioning. The unit is part of the broader Infant Child Youth Mental Health Service (ICYMHS).
Adolescents who have turned 13 (but are not yet 18 years of age) are admitted for mental health assessment and treatment when their presentation presents high levels of risk, or when a more specialised service is required for assessment and treatment. These young people may be experiencing significant acute and complex emotional, behavioural and/or social difficulties and have usually had some outpatient treatment.
The team is well supported by the Austin School teaching staff who work to keep young people connected to their home schools or help them reconnect to appropriate educational pathways.

- Manage all incoming referrals to the adolescent inpatient unit including recording relevant information and liaising with the inpatient team regarding admissions
- Working collaboratively with the interdisciplinary team, external referrers and other health services to ensure timely access to adolescent mental health inpatient beds
- Actively supporting consumer flow through the inpatient unit.
- Working collaboratively to support safe and successful discharge for patients back into the community setting.
- Ensuring relevant information management systems are kept up to date (i.e. REACH)
- Completing post discharge contacts within the required timeframes.
About you
To be successful in this role, you’ll need to bring with you:
- Relevant professional qualification in a health-related discipline (Nursing, Social Work, Occupational Therapy or Psychologist) and current registration with the relevant professional board, Association or College - refer to position description for further details.
- Demonstrates a flexible, positive and innovative team orientated approach to service delivery and change
