POST: TRAINER: EMPLOYING TRUST: Primary Care Liaison General Adult Psychiatry Dr Fiona Murphy Plymouth Primary Care Trust (currently – shortly to become a social enterprise, under new management) JOB DESCRIPTION: This is a post in general adult (community) psychiatry, working at Elmview, Plympton Hospital, as part of the Plymouth Community Mental Health Team, covering the Plympton and Plymstock areas of Plymouth. The catchment area is approximately 40,000, the majority of which is relatively affluent, and predominantly suburban, though there are some small rural patches; it is served by seven GP practices. The post is purely community based as care for all inpatients is provided by the specialist inpatient/home treatment consultant. There is only one consultant working in the Plymouth CMHT. There are four other consultants (3.6 WTE) working at Elmview, in the two other CMHTS’s based there (Central North East, and North <strong>West</strong>). The five consultants have a daytime duty rota to cover emergencies across the whole locality, and also to provide a consultation service to Derriford hospital (red top referrals). The trainee will have the option of participating in this rota. The Plymouth team consists of one band 7 CPN team leader, one band 6 deputy team leader (post currently held by an OT), four band 5 CPN’s, one OT, two support workers, and two AMHP’s (social workers). There is also a full time team secretary, in addition to a medical secretary. There are three psychologists based at Elmview who work collectively to provide a service to all three teams at Elmview. We have access to other psychological therapies, including CBT and family therapy, through the psychotherapy department. There is a full time specialty doctor working with the Plymouth CMHT. Sometimes there is also a core psychiatric trainee in post, but this cannot be guaranteed. The trainee will work closely with other members of the team and provide assessments to new referrals which require medical input, either at base, or at the patient’s home. He/she will also be expected to carry a small caseload of patients requiring follow up/ continuing care. We do not currently have the facilities to provide clinics at GP surgeries but it is hoped that this will change in the near future. However the trainee will be encouraged to link in with a small group of primary care practitioners. The trainee will also be expected to attend the multidisciplinary team referral meetings, provide advice and support to staff in accordance with degree of experience and participate in Care Planning meetings with other members of the team. In order to help with transition arrangements with the home treatment team, the trainee will have the option of attending the weekly discussion meetings held by the home treatment team, and may also attend the weekly ward round for Plym patients, by agreement with the ward consultant. There is an active teaching programme for junior medical staff with weekly case conference and journal clubs. The trainee will be expected to take an active part in this and to help with its organisation. There will also be opportunity to provide teaching to other professional groups. Dr Murphy is a trained group therapist and runs a number of staff and patient groups. The trainee will therefore be given the opportunity to co-facilitate one or more groups, according to his/her interest. 52
