We are delighted to offer the opportunity for a Consultant Psychiatrist to join our Adult Inpatient Ward in Woodlands, Ipswich, Suffolk.
This is a 1.0 WTE Consultant Psychiatrist post working on Avocet Ward, Woodlands, Ipswich, in the Acute Adult Pathway in Suffolk Services. This is a replacement post following the previous post-holder retiring.
Main duties of the job
Avocet Ward is one of two 21 bed acute adult wards within the Woodlands Unit, adjacent to the Ipswich Hospital on the same site.
The Unit also consists of a 10 bed Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), a Section 136 suite, a later life ward and a Crisis Resolution & Home Treatment Team. The wards work collaboratively with the community teams, in particular with the Crisis Resolution & Home Treatment Team, to provide comprehensive acute treatment.
- The post holder is appointed as a senior professional in order to provide advanced professional expertise and clinical leadership. As such, the post holder is expected at all times to conduct him/herself in such a manner as to be demonstrably helping the Trust to deliver its strategic and business objectives, and to act as an ambassador at the interface with external partners and stakeholders. At no time must the post holder bring the Trust into disrepute.
- Additionally, the post-holder, as is expected from the holder of a senior public position, must at all times comply fully with the Nolan Principles and the Standards of Business Conduct.
- The post holder is being appointed to a post of clinical leadership and will, therefore, be expected to have, and to demonstrate, leadership qualities as set out in the Medical Leadership Competency Framework (NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement and the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges).
