Consultant Psychiatrist - Bicester Adult Mental Health Team

The Bicester AMHT is based at Julier Centre in Bicester. The team serves adults aged 18 to 65 across a primarily urban and rural catchment area. The team receives around 300 referrals per year, with referral patterns evolving following the development of the PCMHT. The team holds a whole-team caseload of approximately 200 patients requiring longer-term treatment and coordinated multidisciplinary care. The consultant will hold 3 clinics a week, with an approximate ratio of 5 follow ups to one new assessment. The consultant will see approximately 1 to 2 new assessment per week, 10-14 follow ups and hold a caseload of approximately 200 patients. The team works with adults presenting with significant clinical complexity, including severe and enduring mental illness, complex risk presentations and needs requiring coordinated multidisciplinary input. The Consultant Psychiatrist will provide direct assessment and treatment, while also offering senior clinical oversight of the wider caseload through MDT discussion, care planning and complex case review. The post offers a varied clinical role, including typically one to two new assessments per week, follow-up clinics and complex reviews within a secondary care CMHT model. Interviews for this role are due to be held on Wednesday 11 November via Teams.
