Summary
• The Clinical Informatics Service (CIS) is a newly-developed service in SLaM dedicated to building a data platform that supports clinicians with the data they need when they need it.

• We are looking for dedicated, passionate clinicians who are interested in digital and data to join us on secondment for 1-2 days per week to lead on specific digital projects.
Please note:We are keen to support internal progression and development. Should you wish to discuss this role with the team please contact David Codling - David.Codling@slam.nhs.uk
Given the duration of this secondment, we require this position to be filled as soon as practically possible.
The digital nurse will be helping to develop the digital tools to help community teams and will be able to help teams to:
• Understand their data.
• Have their needs from a data platform understood.
• Give feedback about things that they would like or would like to change.
• Think about their workflows and how they can better adapt to data.
• Be at the forefront of leading digital transformation.
South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust has a rich history, well-established community links and an international reputation. We deliver specialist services in the London boroughs of Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark, Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Wandsworth and Richmond.
We are committed to provide a high quality and specialist care to our service users and we are recognised for our care and treatment we provide. The Care Quality Commission already rates our services as ‘good’.
The trust recognises the unique and valuable contribution that people with lived experience of mental illness can bring to a role. We therefore welcome applications from people with lived experience and consider them as an asset to the Trust.
Our Values
We take pride in providing specialist care to our service users where our Trust values and our promise to be caring, kind, polite, prompt, honest, listen and do what I say I’m going to do is at the heart of everything we do. When you join us, you’ll be part of something special.
As a Trust we are happy to talk flexible working.
About the Location
The job will be based at the IoPPN Main Building, part of the wider Denmark Hill campus shared by SLaM and King's College London. The IoPPN main building is home to the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience.
Denmark Hill is very well connected and staff can reach Victoria or Blackfriars stations in 10 minutes by train, and East London is 25 minutes by overground.
There are a variety of projects that the Clinical Informatics Service is currently working on, but for this role we are particularly interested in improving our offer to community teams around:
• Caseload management – ensuring that community caseloads are managed effectively and fairly
• Physical health – making sure that care co-ordinators feel empowered to identify and escalate patients on their caseload who need physical health support
To this end we would be looking for someone with:
• Knowledge – a deep knowledge and understanding of how a care co-ordinator works, manages risk and complexity and workflow. A good knowledge of how this might be represented in the data.
• Creativity – using this knowledge to understand what problems are with the current workflows and think creatively about how and when data can be presented to optimise their work
• Leadership – digital transformation requires being able to understand the needs of others, bring them alongside and make room to experiment, learn and change. The ideal candidate will want to develop their leadership skills
