Consultant Psychiatrist in Perinatal Mental Health

4 months ago

Oxford Oxfordshire, United Kingdom Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Are you a doctor interested in an exciting role in Oxfordshire delivering high quality mental health care in the community?

Oxford Health is looking for a 1 WTE consultant psychiatrist, who is an experienced and dynamic medical professional, to provide clinical leadership to the Perinatal Mental Health Team. This post has been created with additional funding to join the existing consultant in the team, taking the overall consultant time to 1.6 WTE in the team. The additional funding recognises the local clinical demands and recommendations from the Royal College of Psychiatrists around staffing (CR232. Perinatal Mental Health Services: Recommendations for the provision of services for childbearing women. September 2021). Applicants who are interested in a less than full time role are welcome to apply.

The Trust is committed to high quality teaching and training for medical students, post graduate trainees in psychiatry, specialty doctors, students and other professionals. The consultant will provide direct clinical supervision and line management with opportunities to develop your skills in these areas.

Oxford is rated the top medical school in the world in THES ratings, and Psychiatry is rated by students as being the best specialty rotation on the course. Oxford has a track record of encouraging medical students to pursue psychiatry as a career, with 7% of graduates citing psychiatry as their first-choice career, equal highest of any UK medical school.

Main duties of the job

With the changing circumstances of modern mental healthcare, the ability to adapt and demonstrate new ways of working is essential. You will have experience of working in General Adult Psychiatry and have great interpersonal skills working with colleagues to work collaboratively with our team managers, and to provide leadership and clinical expertise to our highly skilled and committed multidisciplinary teams.

The Consultant will provide senior medical input and clinical leadership to the Oxfordshire Perinatal Mental Health Team. The post holder will have responsibility for those patients seen by himself/herself, together with those patients seen by medical staff directly supervised by the post holder.

The post holder will assess new routine, urgent and emergency referrals from other agencies alongside other clinicians, provide consultation to non-medical clinicians and offer ongoing management for patients requiring longer term care.

About us

This is an exciting time to join Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust and become part of the Oxfordshire adult service.

If you relish a challenge, are enthusiastic about improving mental health of patients and want to join a friendly and ambitious service which is modernising and expanding at pace, then OHFT has all the right ingredients.

At OHFT we are committed to providing opportunities for flexible working. If you would like to work differently or different hours to those advertised, then please get in touch to discuss this in more detail.

Our services are delivered at community bases, hospitals, clinics and people's homes, delivering care as close to home as possible

We take great pride in our staff and believe that investing in you is key to us achieving our vision of outstanding care delivered by outstanding people.

As such we particularly welcome applications from clinicians who would like to negotiate dedicated PAs for clinical leadership, research, training or other areas of special interest.

The trust offers a generous relocation package and works hard to accommodate flexible working patterns for staff.

We have good supervision and operational structures and an excellent track record of CPD. There are good links with Oxford University, with opportunities for teaching, research and offering placements to trainees.
