Job description

Job responsibilities

CAMHS services are provided across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Swindon, Wiltshire, Bath and North-East Somerset. CAMHS are managed in a coordinated way across the counties, but with separate services in each of the counties, relating to the local authorities and clinical commissioning groups. CAMHS has established good quality working links with local authority partner agencies in all counties, paediatric departments and mental health services for adults, all of which have been reflected in CAMHS strategy agreements within each county.

Services for children with learning disabilities are integrated into CAMHS. Oxfordshire CAMH Services sit within the Oxfordshire and BSW Mental Health Directorate, which is committed to always work in a way that respects, upholds and promotes childrens rights, including the right to be protected from significant harm. These principles are embedded within strategy, operational and staff appointment procedures, as well as clinical governance arrangements.

The Trust is committed to high quality teaching and training for medical students, post graduate trainees in psychiatry, specialty doctors, students and other professionals and we work closely with the Psychiatric Department of the University of Oxford. The Consultant will provide direct clinical supervision and line management with opportunities to develop your skills in these areas.

Please see current Team Leaflet for more information. There are undergoing quality improvement projects to align Teams with the Neighbourhood Model from the NHS 10y Plan.

We are a responsive and innovative Foundation Trust that places our values of Caring, Safe and Excellent at the heart of everything we do. We take great pride in our staff and believe that investing in you is key to us achieving our vision of outstanding care delivered by outstanding people. We support flexible working practices.

We offer rewarding career development with protected SPA time as part of your job plan, encouraging you to take leadership courses to enhance your skills. We also offer a relocation allowance of up to £8,000 for external applicants (subject to eligibility criteria).
