 GOOD SALARY 
Our high secure services care for patients from South of England and we provide low and medium secure services across eight London boroughs.
We are looking for a dynamic and skilled colleague to provide Specialty doctor input to Jubilee Ward, an in-patient ward for patients with dementia and also for those aged over 70 with a functional mental health illness within the Older People’s Mental Health Service (OPMHS).

The post-holder will be working alongside the Specialist Older Adult Mental Health Service (SOAMHS) and Cognitive Impairment and Dementia Service (CIDS) to ensure seamless and holistic care of patients. It is currently a specialist commissioned service with a highly skilled and synergistic multidisciplinary team. The Care Quality Commission recognised the CIDS as “Outstanding” for patient care and “Good” for all other service domains.

We are looking for a colleague with experience of working in older adult mental health services who is an excellent clinician and is passionate about continuous service improvement. You should have good communication and interpersonal skills and be able to demonstrate an ability to work effectively and flexibly with a multi professional team.

It is expected that the medical team members will take a lead role in providing diagnosis and management of new patients, requesting and interpreting investigations, and discussing results with patients and their carers post-diagnostically. The post holder will take a key role in developing the service and will have excellent clinical skills in assessment and treatment of older adults with dementia and other mental health issues.

We are looking for a candidate with the drive, enthusiasm and vision to improve our team’s delivery of care, and contribute to our ongoing expansion and transformation of mental health services. A candidate who is not just good at looking after the interests of the patients our teams will treat today, but can also think ahead and gradually improve everything we do to improve outcomes for all of our future patients and carers. The willingness and ability to do the latter well which separates average, from exceptional, high-performing, clinicians and this is what we are seeking.
