About the role
Berkshire Healthcare's 'Outstanding' Learning Disability Service is seeking a Consultant Psychiatrist to join Campion Ward, our 9-bed LD inpatient unit at Prospect Park Hospital. This 11 PA post includes the opportunity for up to 2 PAs to be dedicated to a special interest, whether that's in research, leadership, QI or service development. And whilst a visible presence on the ward is important, there's also flexibility for hybrid working. This complex and rewarding role is at the heart of a compassionate and forward-thinking service. You'll work closely with an experienced MDT, with our Community and Intensive Support Teams, partner agencies and families to provide excellent care for people with a learning disability and significant mental health or behavioural needs. You'll enjoy challenge and will benefit from a strong peer network of LD consultants, the wider medical team and our leadership team. Berkshire Healthcare and the inpatient Learning Disability service are rated as 'Outstanding' by the CQC and consistently score highly for staff engagement. Our LD team have exceptionally high survey scores including compassionate leadership, staff development, flexible working, and staff wellbeing. You'll be joining a forward-thinking, well-connected team, with opportunities to develop your interests and contribute to our evolving LD inpatient pathway.
