Summary
A Vacancy at South West London and St George's Mental Health NHS Trust.
This is a post within the well-established Perinatal team at South West London and St George’s Mental Health Trust. The post holder will be a member of the Trust’s wider Perinatal Mental Health Community Services Team (the Perinatal Team). The Team has been gradually expanding since
2017, as part of the national implementation of the NHS Long-Term Plan. The Trust is part of the newly created South London Perinatal Provider Collaborative, alongside OXLEAS and SLaM.
This is a 7 PA Consultant post providing clinical leadership to the multidisciplinary team responsible for the London Borough of Wandsworth. This responsibility is shared with a second consultant in the
borough ( 8 PAs).
The vision for Perinatal Mental Health Community Services in South West London (SWL) is that every woman will understand how to access services to support the psychosocial wellbeing of herself, her infant and her family to prevent and manage mental illness. Every woman will be able
to access specialist perinatal mental health care and treatment at the right time, at the right level and at the right location, and ever clinician will understand how and where to refer women. With two points of access across SWL, provided in partnership by SLaM in Croydon, and SWLStG in
Richmond, Kingston, Sutton, Merton and Wandsworth, a high-quality specialist service will be delivered for women with moderate to severe complexity related to their perinatal care. Early identification and treatment from a specialist perinatal community mental health team will be provided for women resident in the six South West London boroughs during the antenatal period until the postnatal period, expanding to 15 months in January 2024 and gradually building this up to 24
months.
South West London and St Georges Mental Health Trust was established in 1994, initially providing services in the London Borough’s of Merton and Wandsworth. The Trust now serves a local population of over 1 million people across the Boroughs of Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton and Wandsworth. In general, the population of SW London is more affluent than other sectors of London and many people in the boroughs served by the Trust are highly educated and assertive in demanding the services they want. There are also pockets of deprivation across south west London and service provision is therefore carefully attuned to the requirements of the population as a whole.
The post-holder will lead, jointly with the other consultant, on the perinatal care for the residents of Wandsworth borough.
