About the role
We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic, progressive and experienced Consultant Psychiatrist to work 3 days per week within the Mental Health Liaison Team, working within Hereford County Hospital.
We support patients with a wide range of needs, including self-harm, adjustment to illness, physical and psychological co-morbidities. As there is no entrance requirement for A&E and people's perceptions of what constitutes a mental health emergency or crisis can vary, people are referred to our team with a variety of needs. For some people this may be their first contact with mental health services, making their contact with us a critical part of their journey to recovery. The successful candidate will be working alongside an experienced Specialty Doctor, Junior Doctor and be supported by an established medical secretary. The successful applicant will have CPD time built into their job plan and will have access to study leave and a study budget.
