Are you an outstanding Consultant Psychiatrist looking for new challenges, career development and a competitive salary?

The ethos of our service is about assessing and treating service users in the least restrictive environment and planning for discharge in a robust and timely fashion. With a focus on stabilisation, we will support service users to manage their mental health, reinforce daily living skills and prepare for independent life back in the community.
Service users on Nash have support from the full MDT with a range of interventions available including occupational therapy, psychology, social work, advocacy, IMHAH services and access to a GP. We excel in quickly stabilising some of the most acutely unwell service users.

We run a number of groups, such as a ‘Hearing Voices Group’, which many of our service users find useful as a way to share their experience.
