Band 8a Physicians Associates Project Lead

1 month ago


Birmingham, United Kingdom Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

Physicians Associates (PAs) are medically trained, generalist healthcare professionals who work alongside doctors and other members of the multidisciplinary team to provide medical care. They can play a valuable role supporting the mental health multidisciplinary team in healthcare delivery. Although BSMHFT already employs a few PAs, their role is not always clearly defined and there is limited awareness within clinical services.

Main duties of the job

The Project Lead will undertake a programme of work over a two-year period to develop a workforce strategy for the employment and practice standards of PAs. This will involve engaging with a broad range of stakeholders to develop and promote a PA competency framework for PAs working in Mental Health supporting their clinical practice.

The Post holder will lead a project to deliver:

o A recruitment plan for expansion of the PA workforce

o A competency framework for PAs

o A rolling CPD programme

o Regional meetings - academic and operational

o A business case for further PA roles in relevant sub-specialties of Psychiatry
