<div><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Job summary</b></h2>
<p></p><p>Harrogate is a vibrant, picturesque and interesting spa town that provides the backdrop for a healthy, safe and satisfying working environment. It has excellent housing stock, sought-after state and independent schools, and was officially voted the happiest place to live in the UK. It is within easy reach of motorways, main-line rail services and within close proximity to Leeds Bradford Airport.Ripon is a cathedral city in the borough of Harrogate. Population (2021) is 16,263.</p><p>
</p><p>There is variability to the mental health needs of both areas, as there are pockets of affluence with independent schools, as well as areas of deprivation and unemployment.</p><p>
This post was vacated by the previous substantive consultant moving.</p>
<p>The Harrogate locality is covered by two community mental health teams: The Harrogate Integrated Community team (HICT) and Ripon Integrated Community Team (RICT). These teams include workers with assertive outreach and primary care functions, hence the term Integrated. They are both based at Hummingbird House, Harrogate. There is a Crisis and Resolution Team based here as well. The acute hospital liaison service is based at Harrogate District Hospital. The post holder will be working with the Ripon Integrated Community team. Another consultant also provides input into this team with 5 PAs. The team covers the areas of Ripon, Knaresborough and Boroughbridge.</p><p></p>
<h3 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Main duties of the job</b></h3>
<p></p><p>The expectations of the clinical work are that you will provide consultant input in line with the principles of New Ways of Working. The core clinical work will involve outpatient clinics, formulation-, review- and leadership- meetings and Mental Health Act-related work. The direct clinical workload centres on clinic-based meetings. As a result of the Transformation of Mental Health Services in Harrogate, inpatient services are provided from Foss Park Hospital in York with enhanced support for local teams provided through the crisis resolution and home treatment team.
</p><p>
You will not act as a care coordinator. You will act as a lead professional for those patients not subject to CPA. You will conduct up to 2 new assessments per week, following the initial assessments by the care coordinator. You will conduct 10 follow ups per week. Review will occur on a regular basis to manage the caseload within acceptable numbers.
</p><p></p><p>Cover arrangements and supervision of junior medical staff will be shared with the other post holder who works 5 PAs in this team.</p><p></p>
