Community Adult Psychiatry Specialty Doctor

This is a well-established post, which has become vacant as the previous postholder went into the Senior Trainee Training programme. A lot of transformation has taken place already and continues to take place in Haverings adult mental health services over the past few years. We wish to recruit to this post as soon as possible.

This is a replacement, substantive, full-time post - 10 Programmed Activities (PAs) post with 8 Direct Clinical Contact activities (DCC) and 2 Supporting Professional Activities (SPAs).

The post holder would have completed foundation training and preferably worked in adult psychiatry for one or two years, committed to a culture of care and collaborative working in the team. Work directly with adult patients and their families and liaise as appropriate with inpatient, crisis and other members of the multi-disciplinary team.

The successful candidate will work as part of a multidisciplinary team providing care to adults with mental health needs who are registered with a GP Practice located in the northern part of the London Borough of Havering (plus a small number of patients who reside in that part of the Borough, but whose GP is elsewhere).

NELFT NHS Foundation Trust provides mental health and community services for over 4.9 million people living in the London Boroughs of Waltham Forest, Redbridge, Barking and Dagenham, Havering, and across Essex.
