- **Monday to Friday (8.00am to 4.30pm)**:

- **Mason Clinic, Point Chevalier**
- Do you want a new direction in mental health nursing that is not in a hospital or the community? Forensic Prison Team could be the right role for you._
- Keep your weekends free Hours of work, Monday-Friday 0800-1630 hours_
- We work in the Northern Regional Corrections Facilities (Auckland/Northland). It's interesting, every day is different, and you interact with Custody staff, prison Health staff, Police and lawyers on a daily basis who do value your expertise_

**About us**

The Auckland Regional Forensic Psychiatry Service, or the Mason Clinic as it is often known, is the largest Forensic Mental Health Service in New Zealand. We serve the four Northern District Health Boards including all courts in the northern region and five prisons.

We deliver a comprehensive range of Forensic Mental Health Services, including secure inpatient acute and rehabilitation services which connect to community rehabilitation services, services for offenders with an intellectual disability, culture specific programmes for Māori, court liaison and prison mental health services. This includes a regional service to Northland Region Corrections Facility and Northland.

**About the role**

As a key member of the Forensic Service, you will be working in the prisons advising on issues related to an offender’s current mental health. This is a different and challenging role to traditional mental health nursing. We provide mental health triage assessments for prisoners referred from Corrections staff/ Health staff and follow up care to a caseload of prisoners with major mental illness. Offenders often have complex mental health needs and the role involves working with these men and women in the custody environment as part of a multi-disciplinary team.

This role requires excellent assessment skills and experience with implementing interventions which enhance prisoners mental health outcomes. The ability to manage relationships with multiple stakeholders would also be an important aspect of the role including general mental health services.

We are a relatively small team based at Mason Clinic Te Aka Building (1st floor) visiting all prison sites Auckland wide and Northland. You will be based in an Auckland prison.

There would be an opportunity to be trained and appointed as a Duly Authorised Officer as it relates to the Mental Health Act after a period of experience within the team. The DAO role attracts an extra allowance of $2700+ per annum.

So, if you would like to work autonomously (within the bounds of a multi-disciplinary team), are confident in your verbal and written communication skills, have significant mental health experience and ready for a new challenge, this could be the time for a change. This is a role that is highly valued by our Corrections colleagues and mental health professionals alike.

The hours of work are 0800-1630 hrs Monday to Friday. Weekends and public holidays off.

**About you**

On top of the above skills, you will need:

- NZ RN Annual Practicing Certificate
- Previous Mental Health Nursing experience
- Full NZ driver’s licence

For further information about the position, please contact Sharon Price, Team Manager on 09 845 7581.
