We are seeking to recruit Consultant Psychiatrists to work into the newly transformed Integrated CMHTs across the city. Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) is the main provider of specialist mental health and learning disability services in Leeds. We also provide specialist services across York, the Yorkshire and Humber region, and some highly specialised national services.
The newly transformed community service has been designed following the NHS Long Term Plan which seeks to address gaps in care provision and ensure that people experiencing severe mental illness and difficulties get the care they need.
Mental health services need to ensure that:
o People can have a good-quality assessment at whatever point they present.
o Interventions for mental health problems are readily available and accessible at the location most appropriate to people's needs.
o Care can be stepped up where or when more specialist care is required, and stepped down, in a flexible manner without the need for cumbersome referrals and repeated assessments.
o There are effective links with community assets to support and enable people to become more embedded within their community and to use these assets to support their mental health.
Trauma informed care is a fundamental way of working which underpins how the service provides care. Teams consist of existing practitioners within Working Age Adult Community Mental Health Teams (WAA CMHT) and the Primary Care Mental Health (PCMH) element of Leeds Mental Wellbeing Service (LMWS). New roles will work within these teams, such as Community Wellbeing Connectors, expanded Peer Support roles, Advanced Clinical Practitioners (ACPs), and Mental Health Wellbeing Practitioners (MHWPs), and Complex Psychosis Practitioners, working together to provide support to people within the local areas they serve.
The vacancies have arisen due to the recognition that for the new ICMHTs to work effectively across the city of Leeds, additional consultant recruitment is required. This additional number of posts will enhance medical staffing across the city. The post holders will carry no responsibility for inpatients.
Please enquire for details of number of sessions and area /office base of each available post. The post holder, supported by the MDT, will be expected to provide:
Regular clinical reviews, hub meetings, core team meetings, advice and guidance to primary care, referral meetings, daily huddles, flexibility to accommodate urgent clinical reviews, clinical input within the CPA framework, Approved Clinician status and to undertake the duties of Responsible Clinician for those subject to the MHA 1983 under their care, complex prescribing and review, effective liaison with local mental health providers, local authority professionals and statutory organisations in support safe care and risk management, an expectation to work intensively and assertively with the client group, to contribute to and work as part of the multidisciplinary community team, to work collaboratively with other services within the Trust and other Trusts within the ICS, to provide professional leadership, to provide protected clinical supervision to the Core and Higher Trainee and SAS Doctor, to work jointly with the Clinical Leadership Structure, Operations Manager and Head of Operations and those in other agencies to ensure the service is delivered successfully.
