This post has become available due to the substantive post holder moving to another post within the Trust.

We are looking for a Consultant Psychiatrist to join the Service Line, on Rose Ward, an acute psychiatric ward at Springfield Hospital in Tooting. Rose Ward is a female  ward with 18 beds plus 2 “surge” beds that are used at times of high demand. The ward has recently moved from Queen Mary’s Hospital in Roehampton to Springfield, as the Trust no longer provides inpatient services on that site.

The ward has a full multidisciplinary team including consultant, two trainee doctors, a specialty doctor (0.5 wte), psychologist (0.5 wte), OT, specialist nurses, activity workers, healthcare assistants, ward clerk and ward manager.

We take pride in providing specialist care to our service users with our Trust values- being consistent, compassionate, collaborative, respectful and open - at the heart of everything we do. When you join us, you’ll be part of something special – an innovative and rapidly growing organisation that is helping to redefine the Mental Health, education and social care landscape in the UK.
