Operational Service Manager, Psychiatric Liaison Team

4 months ago


Taunton, United Kingdom Somerset NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

We are presently seeking a Registered Healthcare Professional, with significant mental health experience, to take on the role of Operational Service Manager for the Psychiatric Liaison Service.

This post will provide leadership and management for two Psychiatric Liaison Teams based in Musgrove Park Hospital and Yeovil District Hospital. The Psychiatric Liaison Service is committed to providing a 24-hour, 7 day a week service within the acute hospitals and plays a significant role as part of a fully integrated acute, community and mental health trust. The primary aims of this service are to provide a high quality, safe, effective and responsive patient care, comprehensive and holistic assessment for patients who attend the Emergency Departments or who are admitted to the acute hospitals. Applicants will need to demonstrate a commitment to these principles.

Main duties of the job

Applicants must have experience of working in acute mental health care, with good clinical knowledge of managing patients who present in crisis. They should be motivated, flexible, visible with strong leadership qualities and can demonstrate good organisational and self-management skills. You will contribute to a strong leadership and management structure, which provides care across the acute and community mental health care pathway. We would like you to have a good understanding of change management and how you would take things forward effectively within the service.

You will act as a positive role model for colleagues in a manner that positively reflects the philosophy of the service and the values of the Trust.

Applicant should show a commitment to continuous quality improvement and support with the ongoing accreditation in line with the Psychiatric Liaison Accreditation Network (PLAN).

About us

In Somerset we believe in open access for patients, family and carers with no wrong door. We believe in co-production of services with strong partnerships with VCSE, statutory colleagues, and the Trusts Executive Board. We apply a whole system approach with NHS and VCSE elements of the services being combined and not separated, we are all part of one team and equal partners. We operate a culture of openness, transparency and learning -- we believe it is okay to get things wrong as we can use this as an opportunity to pause, reflect, develop and grow together, with communication being a key to success.

As an organisation, the NHS offers a wide range of benefits including flexible working, pension contributions, market leading annual leave allowance, career progression, and regular conversations, not to mention our Blue Light Card and NHS exclusive discounts.

The benefits of working in Somerset include the idyllic countryside, with our areas of outstanding beauty and stunning coastlines. You will get to enjoy these perks whilst still only being a stone's throw away from bustling city centres like Bristol, Bath and Exeter and only two hours away from London.

There are excellent educational facilities in the area and, when compared to other regions, house prices are reasonable. You will experience the best of both in Somerset, the countryside and the cosmopolitan - there is truly something for everyone
