4 weeks ago
The post holder will work across two teams: The West Wilts (Functional) CMHT and Dementia Service. The CMHT is an age-inclusive service incorporating later life functional mental health. The Dementia service covers all aspects of community dementia care including memory services and care home liaison.

This will include ongoing assessment, diagnoses (including review and clarification), and treatment of mental and physical health needs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Providing advice to members of the Multi-Disciplinary Teams in West Wiltshire and the North Wiltshire Dementia Service.
- Regular remote attendance at MDT meetings.
- Assessment and treatment of outpatients in virtual and physically present clinics.
- Holding CPA meetings for outpatients.
- Visiting patients in their own place of residence and/or care homes if clinically indicated.
- Providing advice and clinical leadership into the Dementia Service including the Care Home Liaison service.
- Liaising with other parts of the service, GPs, and non-NHS organisations wherever applicable.
- Liaising with the Intensive and Inpatient services as appropriate to facilitate the smooth handover of clients between services.
- Preparing Mental Health Act Tribunal reports and participating in Mental Health Act Tribunal meetings (Community Treatment Order patients).
- Providing medical and AC responsibility for patients from designated GP practices.
