We seek to appoint a clinician, with an enthusiasm for Rehabilitation Psychiatry to join our team of Psychiatrists in NHS Highland.
This post offers a unique opportunity for a motivated doctor who enjoys teamwork to be part of a modern service for in-patient specialist rehabilitation psychiatry.
The post is an integral part of the NHS Highland mental health rehabilitation service pathway and is well supported by secondary care colleagues as well as being built on established partnerships with primary care and third sector care providers. The post holder will be supervised by and work alongside a Consultant Psychiatrist within the same team, with the aim of providing medical assessment, care and treatment to those with severe and complex mental disorder. The nature of this work means that Section 22 Approved Medical Practitioner status is essential to support medical and other colleagues within the team.
The recent pandemic has accelerated our existing capacity to deliver this service using digital technology, which opens up further opportunity and flexibility to the post holder. The post is based at New Craigs Hospital, Inverness in the South and Mid Operational Unit at NHS Highland. Some travel will be expected and reimbursed.
There is a peer group of Specialty Doctors in the service which meets regularly; CPD and development of special interests is valued and encouraged.
Interested applicants should contact Dr Neil McNamara, Clinical Director, New Craigs Hospital, Inverness on neil.mcnamara3@nhs.scot. Prospective applicants are most welcome to contact us in order to arrange an informal visit.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Recruiting Board.
