Specialty Doctor in the the Children’s Autism and ADHD Assessment Team

·
Part time
An exciting new opportunity has arisen within the Children and Young People team to work within Neurodevelopment.

Gloucestershire is transforming its Neurodiversity provision for Under 18s and we want you to come and join the team as a Specialty Doctor, working part time at either our Gloucester (Acorn House) or Cheltenham (Evergreen House) Locations.

We are looking for an experienced post graduate doctor with time spent working in psychiatry. You will be a team player with good clinical skills, and experience in the assessment and management of Neurodevelopmental disorders.

Main duties of the job

In this role, you will be working as part of a multidisciplinary team, offering specialist Autism assessments for complex young people.

This role will offer highly specialist ADHD assessment for children and young people with a high level of complexity.

As well as other clinical responsibilities, the holder of this role is expected to link to teams across the southwest and nationally to learn from and support best practice.

One of the main responsibilities is also providing supervision to other medics and non-medical prescribers.

About us

We have in excess of 5000 staff working over 50 sites, providing a diverse range of services. We strive to support an organisational culture that is welcoming, builds and celebrates inclusivity and diversity, and provides a sense of belonging and trust.

The annual NHS Staff Survey gives our people the opportunity to tell us about their experience working at the Trust. For the 2023 survey, just over 2800 colleagues gave us their views (58.5%). It was great to see from the results that colleagues are saying that:

89.7%

believe they are making a positive difference to patients/service users 73.3%

would recommend the organisation as a place to work 82.4%

agree that care of patients and service users is the organisation's priority 76.7%

would be happy with the standard of care for a friend or relative

Our results put us as 5th nationally as a Community, Mental Health and Learning Disabilities NHS Employer of Choice and 1st equal amongst all NHS Provider Trusts in the South West. However, we know we have more to do and will continue to drive forward our commitment to making GHC a Great Place to Work.
