We are looking for a Consultant Psychiatry leader to join the Liaison Psychiatry Service at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital and help us grow our service in Complex Orthopaedics. You will be joining colleagues in a dynamic and forward-looking team, at the cutting edge of new developments in liaison psychiatry, with a culture in which development and progression are embedded. The post is offered full-time.

Main duties of the job

The Liaison psychiatry Service at the RNOH works as a triumvirate with Consultant Leads for our main areas of work: complex orthopaedics (including ortho-oncology), spinal cord injury rehabilitation and persistent pain. You will lead the expansion of our service in complex orthopaedics, for which you will have dedicated time in your job plan.

We have a strong tradition of academic research and opportunities to complete high-quality research abound.

There are no on-call commitments at present.

The post will suit someone with experience of teaching and training a diverse range of clinicians.

About us

The RNOH is considered a Centre of Excellence. It is the foremost musculoskeletal centre in the country and rated in the top ten orthopaedic hospitals in the world. The Liaison Psychiatry Service at the RNOH is unique in many regards. It is the only dedicated psychiatric service for people with complex neuro-musculoskeletal needs and one of only a few services for those with persistent pain. It is the only service to provide outreach for people with spinal cord injury (across London) as a new model of care. Our Team is tight knit and works well together. This vacancy would suit a psychiatrist who is looking for an opportunity to make a change in a growing area of liaison psychiatry. Ability to think psycho-socially around patients' needs would be a great advantage.
