The partnership between Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust (BEH) and Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust (C&I) is going from strength to strength since it was originally established in 2021 forming the North London Mental Health Partnership.

In order to meet the needs of the new Partnership services you may be required from time to time to work at different locations to your normal place of work. This may mean that you are required to work at any location that fall under Barnet, Enfield and Harringay Trust and Camden and Islington Trust. The Trust reserves the right to require staff to work at such other places or locations as it considers reasonable and necessary on a temporary or permanent basis.

This Consultant Psychiatrist post covers the London borough of Haringey and operates from the Grove Drug Treatment Service. There is a sister service in Enfield, as well as Dual Diagnosis Teams in each borough. All teams work to the evidence-based model set out in NICE guidance and UK Guidance on Drug misuse and dependence (2017).

Principal duties will include senior clinical leadership to The Grove and responsibility for the medical care of clients under the care of the team.

The Grove is a multidisciplinary team delivering a community service to adults seeking help with difficulties around substance misuse. The service works in a wider partnership with Humankind (a third sector provider) and BUBIC (a peer support and community engagement group). Humankind also delivers alcohol treatment in the borough through Haringey Advisory Group on Alcohol (HAGA).

As of May 2024, The Grove has a caseload of 768 opiate dependent clients prescribed opiate replacement therapy. There are approximately 286 non-opiate clients. The service receives around 20 new referrals per month. Most are self-referral. New referrals are screened by non-medical team members and, if accepted, offered a medical assessment.
