The role involves helping to formalise referral pathways, outcome measures, assessment and treatment protocols as well as attending ward and community MDT meetings, triaging referrals, assessing and signposting to other services, and liaising with midwifes, obstetricians, as well as primary, secondary and third sector care providers.
There will be a strong focus on supporting the continued development of a psychologically informed trauma focus of care within the team and maternity services, providing supervision/training, and utilising research skills for audits, evaluations, and service development.
About us
The service consists of a 6-bed inpatient unit, a community team with bases in Derby and Chesterfield, and a new maternal mental health service working with loss (MMHS).
The inpatient and community services are accredited by the Royal College of Psychiatrists, highlighting the excellent and specialized care provided by the service. The MMHS sits within the perinatal service and has close links with maternity services.
The team includes psychiatrists, psychologists, CPNs, nursery nurses, OTs, team leads, specialist midwives, a social worker, and a service manager, who all possess great enthusiasm and a strong passion for working with women and their families during the perinatal period.
The Trust psychology department facilitates specialized supervision (dissociation, psychodynamic, EMDR, CFT) and training (trauma, CBT), supports CPD, and has good links with university training courses in terms of teaching opportunities, trainee selection and placements. DHCFT goes above and beyond to ensure staff are looked after and feel supported.
