The Child, Youth and Family Treatment Team are a supportive, dynamic, knowledgeable and compassionate team with a strengths-based culture of peer consultation and work-life balance.
We are grateful to be working and providing service to our community on the traditional territories of the Ta’an Kwäch’än Council and the Kwanlin Dün First Nation.
We work closely with families, schools, medical supports and other key people in young people’s lives to support them using a circle of care model. We provide a range of responsive, high quality services to meet the social, emotional and psychological needs of children, youth and families in the Yukon, including office-based counselling services, outreach counselling and nursing services, group and family counselling services, and consultation to government and community partners.
This job is dynamic and can involve a mix in any given day, depending on needs of the service and your interests – you will never need to feel bored working here! There is a strong need for outreach currently so there is a high likelihood your position will involve work both outside and within our offices.
This is a new and developing position and you’ll have the opportunity to shape and mold the practice of nursing with young people at MWSU. We want clinicians to feel supported to explore their areas of clinical interest and look forward to hearing about where you’d like to make a difference for young people and their families.
Reporting to the clinical supervisor of the Child Youth and Family Treatment Team, you and your team will provide a full range of assessment and treatment services to children, youth, young adults and families, and you will receive regular clinical supervision, a range of training both standard and self directed, and the support of a knowledgeable and compassionate team of clinicians. You will have access to nursing supervision and consultation through the wider MWSU team of nurses.
To enjoy and succeed in this position, your philosophy should involve walking alongside clients who are leading their wellness journey, ensuring client needs are considered in service planning, a commitment to safety, inclusive practice, public service, adherence to best practice and ethical standards of the profession, and a strong commitment to trauma informed care and cultural humility.
