Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Clinical Work
The bulk of clinical work will be within a Consultant Led team based at your designated hospital site. Joint assessments with the Community Mental Health Team, & the Crisis Resolution Team where appropriate, may take place at the patients home address, as well as hospital departments such as A&E.
On-call covers the adult in-patient wards as well as Young Person’s Unit (16-17 year olds) if appropriate, and Older Age Wards (>65’s), & any Specialty Units (Rehabilitation Units etc) as well as working with the Crisis Team in A&E. All these are in the main hospital site.
The LED post holder will be expected to accumulate their own out-patient load from new referrals & help out with known patients in out-patients, & pick up ongoing patient management through the community teams as appropriate.
The LED is expected to contribute to the bio psychosocial model of care with the other members of the multi-disciplinary team. This includes history taking, mental state examination of all patients & the physical examination of outpatients where appropriate. The treatments may be physical, pharmacological psychological & social as appropriate. There is a strong emphasis on the recovery model, & as such the trainee will be encouraged to formulate management plans accordingly.
