Working across Queen’s Medical Centre (QMC) and Nottingham City Hospital, our service offers proactive, specialist support to older adults facing mental health challenges such as dementia, acute confusion, delirium, and depression.

As a Pivotal Member Of Our Team, You Will

1. Provide Specialist Care: Deliver expert mental health assessments and interventions to older adults in an acute hospital setting, addressing complex psychiatric and co-morbid physical health needs.
2. Shape Education & Training: Equip acute hospital colleagues with the skills and knowledge to confidently manage mental health conditions, fostering a culture of awareness and responsiveness.
3. Promote Collaboration: Work closely with multidisciplinary teams, families, and carers to ensure a seamless, holistic approach to care.
