NHS Forth Valley: Where exceptional Psychiatrists can flourish and really feel at home
In NHS Forth Valley, we recognize the significant impact Psychiatrists make on their patients' lives. We strive to maintain a system that supports this vital work. Our approach emphasizes holistic, joined-up care throughout the patient journey. Our dynamic Consultant workforce benefits from the small size and flexibility of our health board, enabling effective leadership and positive change.
We are progressing toward having the best mental health services in Scotland for Older Adult Psychiatry and Liaison services. To achieve this, our board has invested in new Consultant positions, making us the best-resourced board for these specialties in the country. This investment will also ensure our services meet the Royal College of Psychiatrists Centre for Quality Improvement Accreditation Standards.
With the creation of these new roles, we offer flexibility in workforce deployment, allowing Consultants to focus more on inpatient, community, or combined settings.
Our current vacancy is within the Older Adult Liaison Psychiatry Team and Mental Health Assessment and Treatment Service, providing specialist assessments within our 750-bed acute hospital and community hospital areas. The teams are innovative and have received awards for their service delivery. This role offers an exciting opportunity to shape the future of our liaison service.
We support all new Consultants in developing into the best doctors they can be, with opportunities for extra SPA time dedicated to teaching, training, patient safety, and service improvement.
Forth Valley offers an excellent quality of life, featuring natural beauty including Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. Stirling, known as the 'gateway to the Highlands,' has top-ranked schools, and major cities like Glasgow and Edinburgh are within an hour's travel. Substantial relocation packages are available.
