Summary
BSMHFT is one of the largest mental health Foundation Trusts in the country, providing mental health services to a culturally and socially-diverse population. The secure care and offender health programme provides medium and low secure inpatient services for men, women and adolescents across the West Midlands. As the lead provider for Reach Out, the West Midlands Provider Collaborative, we have significantly expanded our forensic community outreach service over recent years and have successfully reduced the numbers of people from the West Midlands in secure beds. We also provide prison healthcare and a range of smaller community based clinical services.
You will provide medical leadership to a multidisciplinary clinical team within a shared leadership framework in which the contributions of all are valued. You will deliver excellent clinical care for inpatients to an indicative caseload of 10 patients. The post also involves undertaking assessments for women referred to the service and a weekly prison clinic at HMP Foston Hall (a women prison).
This is an opportunity to join a large, comprehensive forensic service, with a peer group of over 20 consultant forensic psychiatrists. Our Trust values are at the centre of all our work: compassionate, inclusive and committed.
Please refer to the accompanying job description for full details of the roles and responsibilities of this post.
