This is an opportunity for full time specialty post in General adult psychiatry on male and female general adult wards. There are 2 consultant psychiatrists who cover across both wards. The appointee will work together in a 'firm' structure, with one of the consultants and an SpR or Specialty doctor. There is also a foundation doctor on one of the ward teams. Cross cover may be needed between teams at times. The post holder will be required to demonstrate that they have foundation level experience and ideally some experience working in psychiatry. Although this is a non-training post, the successful candidate will be assigned a consultant educational supervisor and will be encouraged to maintain an educational portfolio with appropriate assessments to their level of experience. There is close working in collaboration with the senior doctors, which allows a lot of opportunity for building confidence in history taking, mental state examination and decision making around patient care. Some of the main diagnoses of patients on the ward are schizophrenia, mania, depression and personality disorder. There are often complex cases and time is taken to formulate these through discussion within the medical team, as well as through reflective practice with the Multidisciplinary team. Reflective practice takes place three times a week on the ward, facilitated by a psychologist, and the post holder would be encouraged to attend at least some of this, as part of the work on the ward, and for their learning. *Conduct clerking of new admissions (history and physical examination) *Taking bloods and interpreting results and acting upon abnormal bloods *Interpreting ECGs and actioning as required eg report prolonged QTc to consultant, identify need to transfer to Emergency Department if urgent or discuss with cardiology. *Request imaging from radiology and looking out for the results. *Manage patients' overall physical care.
