Willow Ward is an 11-bed inpatient rehabilitation ward which provides a county wide service for female and male adults who require a high level of support and intensive rehabilitation due to severe and enduring complex mental health conditions. These patients may also have one or more of the following: cognitive impairments associated with their illness, coexisting mental health conditions such as substance misuse, pre-existing neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and physical health conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, or pulmonary conditions. These complex problems affect a person's social and everyday functioning. Willow Ward accepts referrals from both inpatient services and community, and patients on the ward are both subject to the Mental Health Act or voluntary patients. Willow Ward also provides a service to those people who have a primary diagnosis of a non-psychotic illness. Willow Ward will give appropriate advice/assessment/treatment and support patients in the mental health services and identify appropriate placements and or support packages for people with other mental health diagnoses or neurodevelopmental disorders. The list below is not exhaustive and there will be a significant opportunity for the successful post holder to help shape the role further: Provide medical leadership to Willow Ward and the Open Mental Health Rehabilitation Team either through direct responsibility arising from the direct clinical involvement or distributed responsibility for the care of individuals whose care is distributed amongst other professionals.

Collaborate with other senior clinical team members to monitor and regularly review the team's performance and take steps to correct deficiencies and improve quality.
