Consultant Psychiatrist - Adult Male PICU Service
Part Time (flexible working will be considered)
Salary: 0.5-0.6 WTE (up to £155k FTE depending on experience)
Suitable for an experienced Consultant or someone due to complete their CCT in the next 6 months.
St Andrews is a not for profit Charity - we have no shareholders and any surplus we make is ploughed straight back into our services. We are part of the Specialist Provider Collaboratives in the East and West Midlands and are a member of the East Midlands Alliance. Our services in Northampton, set in 150 plus acres of woodland greenery are spread across 5 Divisions: Medium Secure, Low Secure and Specialist Rehabilitation, Learning Disability and Autism, Neuropsychiatry, and CAMHS.
PICU Services aim to provide high-quality assessment, care, and treatment, helping patients to progress to the least restrictive setting by equipping them with the skills required to live as independently as possible, closer to communities of their choosing.
Our teams are multi-disciplinary, with extensive knowledge, skills, and experience of working with services, and therefore we are looking to speak with Consultant Psychiatrists who have an interest in working within PICU services we have set up that will work alongside our existing PICU services and teams too.
We include patients in planning their care, valuing and embracing each individual's unique qualities.
