Description:
This is an exciting opportunity to join a multidisciplinary psychiatric liaison service designed to be integrated into the acute hospital but to maintain strong links to mental health services.
The Salford Mental Health Liaison Team is one of the most established Liaison Teams in Greater Manchester, with strong links across the city-wide liaison network.
The post holder will work closely with the Consultants and other team colleagues in the Liaison Service to develop a high quality, responsive, flexible and integrated service meeting the needs of its client group and the Salford Royal Hospital.
The post holder will be expected to assess the full range of different types of referrals. This will include assessments under the Mental Health Act, including patients who present to the A&E department. Other assessments on other wards (regional major trauma unit, regional neurology unit, medical and surgical assessment units and complex care wards, i.e. any ward of the Salford Royal Hospital) will also be allocated to the post holder. It is anticipated that the post-holder would carry out an average of 2 new assessments in a full clinical PA, or 3 follow up appointments in the same time period. The post-holder would therefore be expected to be seeing 10-16 patients in a week
The post holder will be expected to provide psychiatric assessment to patients older than 16 The Liaison Service will not manage patients outside of the Salford Royal Hospital.
