We’re passionate about making sure that everyone can contribute to achieving our mission and we are continually working to support healthy and happy high-quality teams in all areas of the Trust.
Our application process aims to understand each candidates knowledge, skills and experience. We have found that candidates that use AI to generate their answers can lack specificity and fail to address key criteria outlined in the job description.
It is really important to personalise your application to convey your individual skills, knowledge, and experiences effectively and for us to understand why you are applying for this role with GHC. We discourage over reliance on AI-generated applications as it will lessen your chances of success in securing an interview with us .

This role is offered on a permanent basis. The hours are part-time, 30 hours per week.
As part of community mental health transformation we are seeking to develop the community rehabilitation pathway across Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust with a particular focus on individuals with treatment resistant psychosis and frequent admissions or long stays in inpatient units locally, and out of county, as well as individuals with 24 hour support whose placements are at risk of breaking down.
This newly established team will seek to build links between internal services, VCSE (voluntary, community or social enterprise) organisations and existing/new care providers to ensure a multi-agency, collaborative and recovery-oriented approach to complex rehabilitation. This will include creating a shared ethos and goals and a sense of hope and optimism to deliver individualised and person-centred care to promote independence and integration within the local community.

As Mental Health Rehabilitation Co-ordinator the main duties will be:
- To support the multi-disciplinary team by determining recovery orientated goal plans including identifying recovery focussed activities and fostering a culture of hope
- Develop, implement and evaluate care plans in conjunction with service users, carers and other professionals which reflect individual needs
- Provide assessment and implementation of evidence-based interventions for service users who are experiencing common, acute mental health and longer-term recovery needs
- To work alongside a number of service users on a one to one or group basis, potentially within the individuals own home, or support junior staff, providers and VCSE organisations to carry out this work effectively
The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.

We have a skilled and dedicated workforce of over 5000 colleagues working in a diverse range of services over 55 sites and within people’s homes. We strive to enable a welcoming workplace culture that builds and celebrates civility, inclusivity and diversity, while providing a sense of belonging and trust.
Annual staff surveys, regular Pulse surveys and other engagement opportunities provide our people with lots of opportunity to tell us about their experiences of working with us. In the latest staff survey, 61% of colleagues gave us their views. It was great to hear that:
- 72% of colleagues would recommend the Trust as a place to work, ranking us 1st for Provider Trusts in the South West region on this question.
- 76% would recommend the standard of care provided in our services if a friend or relative needed treatment, also ranking us 1st in the South West region.
- 81% said that care of patients and service users is the Trust’s priority, compared with an average in comparable NHS Trusts in England of 64%.
This high-level overview shows we are in a healthy position, with higher scores than average for comparable organisations, alongside a great response rate, indicating good staff engagement. However, we also know we have plenty of room for improvement in many areas. To that end, we continue to prioritise and invest in our commitment to genuinely becoming a Great Place to Work with consistent top-quartile performance in the annual staff survey and Pulse surveys.
