**Job overview**:
Consultant in Old Age Psychiatry needed to join our team of enthusiastic, welcoming psychiatrists in Cornwall.

The Cober CMHT is situated in the West of Cornwall and provides assessment and treatment for all those over 75 with dementia and mental health disorders as well as for younger patients with dementia. It is a cohesive team and the postholder works closely with another full time consultant based in Penzance to provide cover to the West Cornwall Integrated Care Area. The post has arisen as the previous incumbent has moved into a full time in patient role following service reorganisation.

We are a research active trust with a Brain Health Centre based in Bodmin.

We are lucky to have an actively engaged group of consultants in Cornwall who are working closely with management to develop our services; working with our GP colleagues to develop the Integrated Care Areas. We all meet regularly for continuing professional development once or twice a month on Wednesday mornings along with monthly Senior Medical Staff Committee Meeting.

There are many opportunities for special interests in Cornwall and we are encouraged to develop our own areas of expertise and interests.

The postholder will be joining a warm and welcoming group of specialist older adult psychiatrists who work closely and effectively with each other in a mutually supportive way.

**Main duties of the job**:
The postholder will care for both functional and organic patients in the community as well as providing input to the Memory Assessment Service. There are Memory Assessment practitioners who support diagnosis in dementia and Dementia Liaison Nurses who offer support to targeted care homes who also form part of the multi-disciplinary team.

The home treatment team for the general adult psychiatry service will support people in crisis with functional mental illness with a view to preventing admission.

The post links with North Kerrier east, North Kerrier west, Penwish and South Kerrier and Isles of Scilly.

There is a planned programme of demand and capacity mapping funded by Health Education England (CLEAR - Clinically-Led workforce Activity and Redesign) across community mental health services in Cornwall.

The service is supported by specialist, old age consultant psychiatrist led, inpatient wards at both Bodmin Hospital and Longreach Hospital.
