TRAINING BASE:<br />
CRS/Home Treatment/Acute Inpatient Psychiatry<br />
Dr Tim Dickinson<br />
Devon Partnership NHS Trust<br />
Haytor Unit, Torbay Hospital<br />
JOB DESCRIPTION: The ST4-6 will provide medical input to both the Crisis Resolution/Home Treatment Team<br />
and the Acute Inpatient Service. Elements of these teams have integrated to provide a seamless service for<br />
people in mental health crisis in the community, through admission (if required) and back to community care<br />
providers (Primary Care/CMHT).<br />
The weekly timetable is flexible with little adherence to fixed clinical sessions, the Consultant and ST4-6<br />
providing input to the teams activities when and where needed. Each morning a one hour Acute Services<br />
meeting plans the activities for the day which ensures medical time is used most efficiently. There are nominal<br />
fixed sessions to allow multidisciplinary team meetings with community colleagues and these will usually be<br />
chaired either by the Consultant or ST4-6, depending on clinical need.<br />
Time will be provided for the ST4-6 to undertake supporting professional activities as well as protected time for<br />
a special interest or research. There is a rotational (4 monthly) F2 junior doctor attached to the team and we<br />
also provide <strong>Peninsula</strong> Medical School Year 5 placements (Specialities Block). The ST4-6 will be encouraged to<br />
participate in the teaching and assessment of these junior colleagues.<br />
The service locally is undergoing a substantial redesign and there will be opportunity for the ST4-6 to gain<br />
experience in the management of this process.<br />
Office space will be provided in the Crisis Resolution/Home Treatment Team office with administrative support<br />
from the Consultant’s secretary.<br />
