As one of the GP’s at HMP Five Wells, you’ll provide clinical oversight across a challenging, yet demanding patient group, in a brand new custodial environment. You will be pivotal in engaging the clinical workforce to support the delivery of the organisation’s objectives, and will have the chance to further develop your clinical and medical skills. We recognise training and development is key, therefore we utilise our training centre to facilitate your needs. You will gain insight and training in Mental Health and Substance Misuse.
Due to the size of the prison, we are looking to recruit a team of GP’s to support clinical delivery. Whether you are wanting to work a few sessions as part of your portfolio work, or interesting in working for us full time, we would welcome you getting in touch with us. We are able to offer sessions during the main working week, but also in the evenings and also at the weekend, to fit around the existing commitments you may have.
If you are new to offender health, we will create a suitable induction package to ensure you are equipped for this exciting role. In this high profile, exciting role, you will create a positive and diverse working environment leading on a number of critical areas as the prison is mobilised and subsequently opened:
- Clinical pathways
- Stakeholder engagement
- Patient engagement
What will you be doing?
This is an amazing opportunity to lead a truly integrated team who will deliver outstanding patient care. As the GP, you’ll support the Head of Healthcare in shaping the policies and strategies for developing and modernising clinical practice in order to ensure high quality, safe and appropriate healthcare services for our patients.
You will support and be supported by a wide clinical team including primary care nurses, mental health professionals and substance misuse experts. You will work as part of this multidisciplinary team to manage complex patients and get involved with using new technologies (like telemedicine) to improve care to the population.
Our values:
- We treat patients and each other as we would like to be treated.
- We act with integrity.
- We embrace diversity.
- We strive to do things better together.
