Summary

We have an exciting opportunity for a Consultant Psychiatrist to join our ADAPT, East team.

The post holder will be Consultant Psychiatrist to the Greenwich East Anxiety, Depression, Personality Disorders and Trauma Team (ADAPT) with Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust.

The Greenwich ADAPT Team was formed as part of the reconfiguration of Community Mental Health Services that occurred in September 2015. The reconfiguration of Community Services was part of the directorate’s plan to ensure efficient delivery of mental health services whilst delivering high quality care.

· Anxiety, Depression, Personality Disorders and Trauma Team (ADAPT) provides care and treatment for service users who are diagnosed with Schizophrenia or Bi-Polar Affective Disorder.

· The services aim to be flexible, accessible and available outside of standard working hours. The Pathways of care aim to offer individuals choice and involvement regarding their treatment, actively encouraging their participation in the planning and implementation of their care.

· The Trust provides services to a richly diverse population; the locality teams will work with service users and carers in their community to ensure that the care and support provided is sensitive and appropriate to their needs.

At Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust, we offer a wide range of NHS healthcare services to people living in South-East London and to people in prison across England. Our wide array of services includes community health care, such as district nursing and speech and language therapy, care for people with learning disabilities and mental health such as psychiatry, nursing and therapies.
