Independent franchisees are Equal Opportunity employers committed to diverse and inclusive workforces. Franchisees are independent business people and not employed by Ellie Family Services, PLLP, d/b/a “Ellie Mental Health”, Ellie MSO, LLC, or Ellie FAM LLC. Thus, each franchisee and each franchisee clinic is unique and the franchisee is alone responsible for all employment matters in their clinic, including the terms and conditions of employment for their employees, such as hiring, firing, discipline, supervision, staffing and scheduling. Depending on the clinic location you select, the job for which you apply may be in a clinic owned and operated by an independent franchisee, and not with the corporate-owned clinics, which are based in Minnesota. This means the franchisee, not Ellie Family Services, PLLP, is responsible for all employment matters at the clinic. If you are hired for the job, the franchisee will be your employer, not Ellie Family Services, PLLP or any of its affiliated entities. For franchisee clinic locations, please contact the franchisee organization directly to the extent you need assistance in completing forms or otherwise participating in that franchisee’s application process.

Crisis services (including Braeside, MHAT, OOH's triage, night NTL's, and OOH's CPN's) are currently undergoing organisational change. You will be part of service developments aimed at enhancing crisis services. Some developments include on-site assessments within persons' localities/homes and joint working with SAS and Police Scotland for joint response and assessments.

The ideal candidate will have extensive knowledge of assessing major mental illness or distress. You must be able to work autonomously and as part of a multidisciplinary team, demonstrating sound clinical decision-making skills.

The post involves assessing mental state and risks such as suicide, self-harm, and violence within a holistic assessment framework. Some assessments may be nurse-led, others conducted jointly with medical colleagues, including police S297 assessments. The team provides a 24/7 triage service to Police Scotland, Scottish Ambulance Service, and NHS24.

You will be expected to work a 24-hour shift pattern. Part-time work will be considered.
