Key Clinical Responsibilities:

The post holder will provide clinical leadership to the team. He or she will contribute to assessment of patients referred to the service for diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders and support MDT members who carry out assessment of patients both within the team and in primary care. The post holder will help to facilitate accurate diagnosis and timely interventions so that treatment can be delivered in a timely manner and in accordance with the recovery model. He or she will also provide ongoing treatments to patients that are evidence based and supported by NICE guidelines maintaining a bio psychosocial approach.

The post holder is required to maintain Section 12(2) status and Approved Clinician status and have a comprehensive awareness of Mental Health, Mental Capacity and Care Act legislation. He or she will be expected to participate in Mental Health Act assessments when possible and will be the Responsible Clinician for patients on supervised community treatment orders in the locality.

The post holder is expected to be committed to a multidisciplinary approach to care and actively contribute to MDT meetings and formulation meetings and work in close collaboration with team members, care coordinators, other CPFT services, third sector and statutory agencies as required for the care of community patients. The post holder is expected to develop close working relationship with primary care, particularly General Practitioners and support primary care clinicians to manage patients with mental health difficulties within the primary care setting where appropriate.

Consultants will be expected to form close working relationships with their allocated group of GPs (including regular visits to GP surgeries) and to provide support and supervision to the Primary care Mental Health team in their area, as well as to provide care to patients needing specialist mental health care.

There are opportunities for both clinical work (including consultations and advice and guidance) and supporting professional activities to be conducted remotely through the use of video consultation software and videoconferencing software.

The post holder will be expected to contribute to the collection of clinical information to ensure further service development and to enable audit, participate in clinical governance activities and contribute to the day-to-day management and to the overall service development agenda through collaboration with managerial and clinical colleagues.

Special interest opportunities :

The post comes with excellent opportunities and support from the Directorate to develop a special interest in line with service needs. A proportionate reduction in Clinical PAs (from 7.0 to 6) may be an option dependent on candidates individual interests if successful at interview.

Example opportunities include:

  • Medical education: CPFT has a strong medical education department and consultants with key formal roles in the North. Opportunities exist to develop as an educator at undergraduate and post graduate level. Peterborough is part of the Cambridge university northern hub and hosts clinical students in psychiatry throughout their 3 clinical years.
  • Medical management and leadership. The NHSE exemplar project provides the perfect opportunity for someone interested in furthering their skills in service development, medical management and leadership.
  • Areas of clinical special interest: candidates who have a specific clinical area of interest (e.g. Substance misuse, transcultural psychiatry, affective disorders, psychosis, physical and mental health overlap) that they wish to develop would be encouraged to do so and become the clinical expert across the locality and wider.
  • Research: The Peterborough Exemplar evaluation is affiliated to the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration in the East of England and is led by Professor Jesus Perez.
