Job Description:

Are you an outstanding Consultant Psychiatrist looking for new challenges, career development, and a competitive salary?

We have an excellent full-time opportunity for a Consultant Psychiatrist to join us at Cygnet Hospital Kewstoke.

The postholder will also be invited to take on the Medical Director position subject to interview.

This role will be based on our Male PICU & Acute services, which provide a safe and stabilising environment for men who may require emergency admission or who are in crisis.

The ethos of our services is about assessing and treating service users in the least restrictive environment and planning for discharge in a robust and timely fashion. With a focus on stabilisation, we will support service users to manage their mental health, reinforce daily living skills, and prepare for independent life back in the community.

Service users have support from the full MDT with a range of interventions available, including occupational therapy, psychology, social work, advocacy, IMHAH services, and access to a GP. We excel in quickly stabilising some of the most acutely unwell service users.

Our multidisciplinary team works across the whole hospital and makes use of a broad range of therapies, including CBT, Schema Therapy, EMDR, and DBT, tailored to individual needs. We run a number of groups, such as a ‘Hearing Voices Group’, which many of our service users find useful as a way to share their experience.

Cygnet Hospital Kewstoke provides an emergency admissions service for men and a pathway for women from low secure to rehabilitation, including a specialist service for personality disorder, and has a "Good" overall CQC rating.

The hospital has more than 16 acres of landscaped grounds overlooking the Bristol Channel. This beachside location, just outside Weston-super-Mare, helps us provide a quiet, peaceful, and therapeutic environment, offering a broad range of therapies including CBT, Schema Therapy, EMDR, and DBT.

In this role, your expertise will be the driving force for life-changing treatment – fully supported by a Specialty Doctor and a first-class multidisciplinary team.

At Cygnet, our perks go beyond pension schemes and professional development. You’ll also enjoy shopping, travel, and leisure discounts, as well as a range of healthcare and financial benefits to support your happiness both in and out of work.
