We are seeking a Specialty Doctor to join our team in the Worthing Assessment and Treatment community team.
You will work closely with the Consultant Psychiatrists within the team to provide specialist assessment and treatment to service users alongside the MDT.
You will be a part of the team comprising of two team leaders, two consultant psychiatrists, a second SAS doctor, nurses, OTs and psychologists.
You will assess new patients, formulate treatment plans, and conduct follow-up reviews. You will have the opportunity to join professional meetings and complex case and risk panels. You will participate in the MDT meeting weekly.
There is a weekly academic afternoon, and SPFT supports candidates looking to undertake the CESR route to consultancy.
At Sussex Partnership, we are committed to providing opportunities for flexible working. If you would like to work differently or different hours than advertised, please get in touch to discuss this in more detail.
The main duties are discussed above. However, there is a lot of scope to develop this role. Worthing ATS is a vibrant community team that supports innovation and is always motivated to look at Quality Improvement. The successful candidate can be supported to gain enough experience to enter a training job or be supported to go through CESR.
