Consultant Psychiatrist for Bethnal Green Neighbourhood Mental Health Team and Inpatients
Tower Hamlets
This post has become available, as the previous consultant has retired. This post covers both inpatient and community work across 6PAs.
The post is within well-developed multidisciplinary teams working in the vibrant borough of Tower Hamlets. There are opportunities to work flexibly and good support from a collegiate consultant body within the Directorate.
Tower Hamlets adult mental health directorate had taken pride its continuity of care model where patients have the same consultant in the community and inpatient setting. Following the Coronavirus pandemic we had created a new model of one inpatient based consultant and several community based consultants within each Neighbourhood team working across primary care liaison and secondary mental health care. Some NMHTs have reverted back to the continuity of care model. The corner-stone of the model of care continues to be strong relationships across the interface between community/inpatient and primary/secondary care. Community Consultants’ caseloads are aligned to specific GP practices from the Bethnal Green area of Tower Hamlets.

This is an opportunity to work with well-established multidisciplinary mental health teams in Tower Hamlets.
Bethnal Green Neighbourhood Mental Health Service (NMHT) is an integrated multidisciplinary service. The service is based around Primary Care Networks and the post-holder will join the current substantive consultant in PCN2 to provide clinical leadership to the team. The team is based at a community clinic which also houses the Bow and Poplar NMHT, the Tower Hamlets Early Intervention Service, and the Early Detection Service. The inpatient facilities are based at the Tower Hamlets Centre for Mental Health at Mile End Hospital. The service base is very central to the borough with good bus and Tube connections.
Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive – so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.
The post-holder will provide consultant leadership to the service and will assume consultant psychiatrist responsibility for patients being looked after by the ward. As appropriate, this may include taking a lead on compliance with the Mental Health Act and CQC requirements. They will carry out detailed psychiatric assessments of patients to allow accurate diagnoses and advice on appropriate treatment plans including making adjustments to their treatment plans when necessary (including pharmacological management of psychotropic medication). They will participate, directly and indirectly, in the assessment of patients referred to the service and in drawing up care plans which will address the patients’ psychiatric, physical health and social needs.
