An exciting opportunity has come about for a new role within the Mental Health Liaison team (MHLT) as an Consultant Liaison Psychiatrist with specialist input into eating disorders.

This is a new post following investment by the ICB to move the MHLT towards core 24 provision and support the management of patients with eating disorder in the acute hospital setting.

You will work alongside 3 other Consultant psychiatrists as well as the multi-disciplinary team. You will provide senior medical advice, support, consultancy and clinical leadership to the MHLT at the Gloucestershire Royal Hospital and Cheltenham Hospital sites, but are employed by Gloucestershire Health and Care.

You will be expected to attend Mental Health Assessments for general hospital inpatient during normal working hours alongside colleagues.

The Liaison Consultant is expected to run a Medically Unexplained Symptoms Clinic once per week.

This role will take a lead for psychiatric assessment and management of all age patients with disordered eating admitted to the acute Trust. Providing support and oversight to medical colleagues in care of these patients, and working closely with colleagues from the eating disorders service.

About us

We encourage a healthy work-life balance and we have regular away days.

Our medical directorate also supports Consultants through positive relationships with the LNC and Medical Staffing Committee.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.
