Consultant Psychiatrist Opportunity
We are recruiting for a full-time Consultant Psychiatrist to join Swindon Community CAMHS and work with a well-established multi-disciplinary team at Marlborough House in Swindon.
You'll provide psychiatric clinical input and leadership within a recently redesigned service delivering targeted mental health care to children and young people with severe and enduring mental health needs through our Getting More Help pathway.
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide clinical leadership and medical input to the team
- Responsibility for those patients you see yourself, together with those patients seen by medical staff directly supervised by you
- With other consultants in the team, you will have responsibility for the clinical governance as clinical leads for the team.
- The team will assess all emergencies referred to it within a day of referral. When necessary, this will include responsibility for Mental Health Act assessment of patients.
- Work in partnership within the multidisciplinary team for the clinical management of patients. This will include risk assessment, the assessment of the needs of carers, and the development of services to meet the needs of patients and families for whom the team is responsible.
- Consultant Psychiatrists within the Swindon team have a robust system to arrange cross-cover to ensure there is always a psychiatrist available to the service.
