Do you have a passion for providing exceptional care and are looking for an exciting, and challenging role?

 It is fantastic time to join the Liaison Psychiatry service as we are developing our services to CORE24!

The Service – Liaison Psychiatry

The Liaison psychiatry service aims to provide mental health advice and support to individuals receiving care and treatment at general hospitals in Kent and Medway. The general hospital staff can refer anyone over the age of 18 who attends A&E or is an inpatient on a medical or surgical ward. The liaison team can then offer advice, support or a full mental and psychological health assessment as appropriate. By ensuring that an individual’s physical and mental health are considered holistically, it is possible for the whole healthcare team to ensure the most effective care is delivered in a collaborative way.
