TRAINING BASE:<br />

General Adult Psychiatry<br />

Dr Mather<br />

Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust<br />

Bodmin Hospital, Bodmin, Cornwall<br />

JOB DESCRIPTION: The specialist Trainee will provide supervised psychiatric care and input to working age<br />

adults from 16 years upwards in an area of North Cornwall which includes a mix of deprived, affluent, urban<br />

and rural areas. The patch covers Padstow, St Columb, Wadebridge, Bodmin and the Launceston area. This<br />

busy post serves a population of approximately 31,000 adults. The CMHT enjoys good relationships with<br />

primary care and has been a key contributor to the now completed and successful integrated care pilot project<br />

currently being rolled out to the rest of Cornwall. Monthly ‘hub’ meetings occur between CMHT staff, the<br />

Consultant Psychiatrist and GPs at GP surgeries.<br />

Inpatients reside at Fletcher Ward on the same site as our administrative and out patient clinics in Bodmin<br />

Hospital. Other teams such as AOT, EIP, HTT, Forensic, Complex Care/Dementia and HCAs/supported housing<br />

workers also have staff based at this site which makes maintaining high quality and efficient relationships with<br />

other teams easier.<br />

Outpatient clinics are held at primarily at Bodmin Hospital and also in GP surgeries in Launceston and<br />

Wadebridge. There is also ample scope for joint community working with other members of the wider team.<br />

The Consultant for the post is Dr Greg Mather. The supervising Consultant also provides medical cover to the<br />

Home Treatment Team and Assertive Outreach Team. The post enjoys the valuable support of a full time ST2<br />

trainee. The ST4-6 post links well with the supervising consultant post providing good opportunities for readily<br />

accessible support and supervision. The higher trainee will also have ample opportunity to develop their<br />

interests and skills of independent working or of linking with other members of the wider team.<br />
