We are seeking to appoint a full time Specialty Doctor working with NHS Fife Addiction Services. NHS Fife Addiction Services provide a Fife-wide treatment service to individuals with drug and alcohol-related problems. The service actively works in partnership with other agencies to provide comprehensive care. You must possess a registered medical qualification, hold full GMC registration and have met the requirements for Specialty Doctor position in Psychiatry. Those from other medical backgrounds will be provided adequate training if otherwise deemed suitable for this post. You will be encouraged to have an enthusiastic and positive attitude towards your own professional development and the ability to work independently, as well as part of a team. Your timetable will be agreed with your supervisor/consultant, Clinical Lead and the Clinical Service Manager for Addiction Services. This should enable you to access a well-established local teaching programme which incorporates other aspects of psychiatry in Fife. There will also be dedicated special interest sessions allocated for other clinical, teaching or research activities tailored to the needs and competency of the successful candidate. You will receive regular structured supervision and will be fully supported in the appraisal and revalidation process. Candidates aiming to apply for CESR (also known as Article 14) will be supported by the service. The field of addiction is unique in its approach to broad collaboration with different other services and agencies. The medical team, which is comprised of a Clinical Lead, two consultants (one part-time), two speciality doctors (including this post) and two part-time GPs, meet on a monthly basis. Working closely with the medical team, is an active group of non-medical prescribing nurses. You will be expected to actively participate in the multi-disciplinary team meetings. The service has very strong links with the Universities of St Andrews and Dundee, and you will be encouraged and supported to get involved in clinical audit and/or research. Our teaching commitments include undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in addiction medicine. We also have teaching placements for nursing, social workers and health psychology trainees. You will be required to travel throughout Fife. Fife is an area of considerable historic interest and enjoys areas of outstanding natural beauty.
