This post is for a full-time Trust Grade Doctor at CT1 level. It is an excellent opportunity to experience working in psychiatry.
The post is suitable for any doctor who has completed foundation training, or equivalent – some experience in psychiatry will be essential. The post holder will be given time for professional development and will be supported in planning the next steps in their career, either in psychiatry, general practice, or other medical fields.
The post will be for 10 PA per week (40 hours) and is a 12 month fixed term post.
The postholder will primarily work in Alderney Hospital Poole in the Older People’s Mental Health Inpatient Wards St Brelades (male) and Herm (female). Although they will primarily work with one consultant and on one ward – there will be the expectation that they will cross cover and support the adjacent ward for leave. Subject to agreement and a personal development plan there will be the opportunity to undertake clinical attachments to other services and areas as special interest.
We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and conscientious professional who is dedicated to providing the best care for our service users and have values (compassion, excellence and expertise) and a vision (Better Every Day) that resonates with that of the Trust.
The post holder will be supervised by the Consultant Psychiatrist, exact responsibilities will vary depending on organisational need, but may involve managing patients in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings.
Successful applicants will have previous experience in a Health or Social Care setting.
Alongside the clinical work this post will retain a strong emphasis on learning opportunities and the post holder will get 15 days of study leave (per 6 months) and a £300 study budget. Participation in the weekly journal club will be facilitated and opportunities to use the study leave doing special interest sessions in specialist services can also be arranged.
At Dorset HealthCare we’re on a mission to empower people to make the most of their lives through our outstanding, joined-up healthcare services. We’re a dynamic, forward-looking Trust, running 12 community hospitals, specialist inpatient facilities and a wide range of integrated community and mental health services for a population of almost 800,000 people.

Whether you’re looking to work with us in one of our bustling market towns, vibrant urban locations, thriving seaside spots, or among the rolling hills of Dorset, there are lots of ways you can make a difference in our communities.
Our 7,000-strong workforce is at the heart of what we do and our success is a testament to our brilliant people. We're all about building a workplace for the future, we believe in equal opportunities and we celebrate diversity.
