Position Summary

The Mental Health Technician (MHT) functions as an essential member of the nursing staff, supporting quality patient care and ensuring patients’ daily needs are met.

The MHT supports licensed nursing staff by performing routinely assigned tasks and carrying out patient care activities within the scope of training and experience.

Responsibilities include providing direct patient care to assigned patients and ensuring their activities of daily living are met. MHTs are primarily responsible for the day-to-day custodial care of patients and assist in maintaining a therapeutic milieu through assigned group activities and supportive interventions.

The MHT utilizes basic psychiatric nursing knowledge to observe and communicate emotional, behavioral, and psychiatric manifestations of patients’ conditions to licensed nursing staff.

As a visible and accessible presence on the unit, the MHT remains readily available to address patient needs while helping maintain a safe environment through diligent observation of both patient status and the physical environment.

Additional responsibilities include:

Communicating patient observations effectively to licensed nursing staff
Assisting licensed staff with clerical duties as needed
Maintaining professional patient care standards according to facility mission, policies, procedures, and all regulatory requirements
Serving as a communication bridge between patients, families, and licensed staff
Assisting with patients’ nutritional needs in collaboration with licensed nursing staff
Supporting therapeutic interventions using effective communication and de-escalation techniques
Managing the therapeutic environment with professionalism and compassion

Working Conditions

Work environment characteristics are representative of those an employee must meet to successfully perform essential job functions. Reasonable accommodations may be made for individuals with disabilities.

While performing job duties, employees may occasionally be exposed to:

Fumes or airborne particles
Cleaning chemicals
Dust, mist, and steam generated during housekeeping tasks
Moderate to high noise levels

This is a smoke-free workplace.

Work is performed primarily indoors (75% or more of the shift) in an environment protected from weather but not necessarily temperature changes.

Employees must provide documentation of a tuberculosis test during orientation and annually thereafter.

Physical Requirements

The employee must be able to:

Stand for extended periods (60–80% of shift)
Sit for extended periods (up to 4 hours)
Walk frequently throughout the shift
Lift and carry more than 10 pounds

Additional physical requirements include:

Reaching: Extending hands and arms in any direction
Handling: Grasping, holding, turning, and working with hands
Fingering: Picking, pinching, and manipulating small objects
Feeling: Detecting texture, shape, size, and temperature
Talking: Clearly expressing ideas verbally
Hearing: Perceiving alarms, phones, and spoken communication
Seeing: Visual acuity (near/far), depth perception, peripheral vision, accommodation, and color vision

The role may involve repetitive tasks and frequent interruptions.

Stress is considered a job hazard due to the fast-paced psychiatric environment and the acuity level of patients in crisis.
