Thanks a Bunch Jon!
This week’s Thanks a Bunch went to Dr Jon Barrett, Consultant Psychiatrist for the CAMHS Crisis Team. He was nominated by Interim Crisis Team Manager and Senior CAMHS Practitioner Helen Sellers, for his diligence, compassion and excellent teamwork working in a new role.

She acknowledged how he always goes above and beyond to support his colleagues and the wider CAMHS team saying, “Jon puts so much dedication and effort into making sure young people and families of Leeds receive the best possible care and the outcome is always centred to their needs.”
Ed Pepper, Medical Lead for CAMHS said “Jon has worked across CAMHS and in all areas he is the most accessible, reliable source of wisdom. Always there for his colleagues and loved by them. A huge asset to the service and the Trust.”
Ruth Burnett, Executive Medical Director surprised Jon and praised him, “Thank you for all you do for the Trust, you really reflect all the Trust values.”
