Consultant Psychiatrist - Old Age (Inpatients) As a Consultant Old Age Psychiatrist working for Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, you will be responsible for ensuring that our service users' needs are met through the delivery of high-quality care.
As a leader of the inpatient multi-disciplinary team at Dunes ward, Hartley Hospital, you will work in a state-of-the-art mental health facility, providing clinical care to older adults who require specialist inpatient care.
You will work closely with a wide range of clinical and professional disciplines to deliver holistic care by completing assessments of new admissions to Dunes ward and managing their treatment, ensuring safe discharges back to the community.
Main Duties of the Job The post holder will be responsible for completing assessments and formulating treatment plans for service users admitted to Dunes ward from the community.
Dunes ward is a 20-bedded primarily functional older adult complex care ward at Hartley Hospital.
As a substantive Old Age Psychiatry Consultant on Dunes ward, you will work closely with other members of the multidisciplinary team.
You will be the Responsible Clinician for patients admitted to Dunes ward, which will invariably involve managing patients who have been detained under the Mental Health Act; therefore, the post holder will require a sound knowledge of Mental Health Act law.
This will include completing relevant mental health act documentation and capacity assessments as required.
The post holder will be expected to lead the multidisciplinary team at Dunes ward in an enthusiastic, supportive, and approachable manner to foster positive working relationships and morale among ward staff.
The post holder will complete ward rounds throughout the week and provide clear communication and documentation regarding assessment outcomes and management plans.
They will also be expected to provide leadership and training to trainee doctors and medical students placed on Dunes ward and take an active part in the clinical work of the team, playing a lead role in the development of the service.
About Us Mersey Care is one of the largest trusts providing physical health and mental health services in the North West, serving more than 1.4 million people across our region (Halton, Warrington, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, and St Helens) and is also commissioned for services that cover the North West, North Wales, and the Midlands.
We offer specialist inpatient and community services that support physical and mental health, including specialist inpatient mental health, learning disability, addiction, and brain injury services.
Mersey Care is one of only three trusts in the UK that offer high secure mental health facilities.
At the heart of all we do is our commitment to 'perfect care' - care that is safe, effective, positively experienced, timely, equitable, and efficient.
We support our staff to do the best job they can and work alongside service users, their families, and carers to design and develop future services together.
We're currently delivering a programme of organisational and service transformation to significantly improve the quality of the services we provide and safely reduce costs as we do so.
Job Responsibilities Regular reviews of inpatients to monitor the response to treatments will be required, and the post holder will operate within multi-disciplinary integrated and co-located teams, which include Health staff and Social Services staff.
They will be expected to liaise closely with Social Services to ensure safe and timely discharge planning of inpatients and communicate promptly with primary care services by providing discharge summaries.
At times, patients who are under General Adult teams in the community may be admitted to Dunes ward if this is deemed the most appropriate place for them at the time due to circumstances with bed availability in the Trust.
The post holder will be expected to provide inpatient care through assessment and treatment as required while such patients await transfer to more suitable inpatient units if needed.
The post holder will be responsible for the overall assessment, management, and safe discharge planning of inpatients on Dunes ward, working closely with other members of the multidisciplinary team, including Social Services, Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, and Primary Care.
