Opportunity

Working as part of a skilful multi-discipline team, Head Medical is seeking a Consultant in Forensic Psychiatry who would offer outstanding clinical leadership and clinical care for the patients admitted to the functional ward. Working for one of the largest NHS mental health trusts in the country, serving a population of over one million people in Nottinghamshire, this is an exciting time to come and join the medical workforce and have the opportunity to shape the provision of care to patients within the community.

Newly appointed Consultants will be offered mentoring which will be arranged by the Associate Medical Director.

Arnold Lodge ordinarily receives 70-90 pre-admission referrals of men with a primary diagnosis of mental illness per year.

• Manage an inpatient case load of approximately 12-14 patients.
• Chair ward rounds, convene and chair CPA meetings and provide clinical leadership to the MDT.
• Provide timely reports to Hospital Managers, Tribunals, the Ministry of Justice and Courts.
• Liaise with all necessary organisations in order to provide patients with the appropriate care pathway and will convene and chair Section 117 meetings.
