2 weeks ago


Aberdeen, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

We are pleased to be able to offer this whole time post, which covers a population of circa 10,000 people aged over 65. The Consultant will be responsible for the provision of Older Adult Mental Health Services based in Central Aberdeenshire, linked to 5 General Practices. In addition to this the Consultant will have responsibility for acute and organic admission beds at Royal Cornhill Hospital and in Ashcroft Ward, based at Bennachie View Care Home in Inverurie.

This post is based at Royal Cornhill Hospital, a modern Psychiatric Hospital with a range of specialties, in close vicinity to the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. One of the attractions of working in Aberdeenshire is a tradition of close working with colleagues from General Practice and the local authority. Since April 2016 this has been formalised as an Integrated Joint Board.

Aberdeenshire thrives as a centre of administration, education, tourism and trade with agricultural, service and têxtile industries. Situated in Scotland’s Castle and Whisky country, the area offers a wide range of recreational activities such as golf, fishing, hill walking, surfing, canoeing, cycling, horse riding and winter sports. This is an opportunity to live and work in a beautiful part of Scotland that offers a great quality of life and has good transport links with the rest of the UK.

Those trained in the UK should have evidence of higher specialist training leading to CCT or be within 6 months of confirmed entry on the GMC Specialist Register from date of interview.

Alternatively, applicants should possess a CESR / CESR (CP).

Informal enquiries are welcomed by:
- Dr Angus Lorimer, Clinical Director, Older Adult Mental Health Services. Tel 01224 557497

Dr Alastair Palin, Associate Medical Director, Royal Cornhill Hospital. Telephone 01224 557725
