Crynodeb

A Vacancy at Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust.


The Medical Support Worker (MSW) post was developed in 2020 as part of the response to the Covid-19 National Emergency. It provides an opportunity for doctors to utilise skills and training to assist with patient care in a supportive and supervised setting and to gain experience of working in the NHS. The post is suitable for doctors who have not been practising recently or for international medical graduates in the process of gaining full GMC registration with a licence to practice.

The basic requirements for application are a medical qualification recognised by the GMC and evidence of postgraduate medical experience to include completion of an internship with 6 months each of a medical and a surgical discipline. International graduates also need proof of proficiency in English as per criteria set by the GMC. The intention is for the MSW to be able to contribute to the safe and effective management of patients in a wide variety of community mental health setting while at the same time being able to hone their skills and gain insights into the culture and working of the modern NHS. The MSW will work within a multi-disciplinary team of healthcare professionals including nursing staff, pharmacists, allied health professionals and medical staff. You will undertake a range of essential routine tasks under the direct or delegated authority of the relevant consultant in charge of the clinical area in which you are employed.

Riverside CMHT is one of 2 CMHTs in the EAST Community Hub. The CMHT looks after adults over the age of 25 and has links to other teams within the Community Hub which includes the Assertive Outreach Team. There is also a dedicated Home Treatment Team that is geographically linked to the CMHT.

It is anticipated that referrals and caseload numbers are likely to reduce as we progress with our Community Mental Health Transformation as part of the Long-Term Plans. There will be less focus on static caseloads and more focus on partnership working in local neighbourhoods aligned to Primary Care Networks.
