Lancashire & South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust are opening a new Moving on Rehabilitation Service based in the heart of Lancashire and we are looking for a dynamic consultant who can clinically lead a transformed service.

You will provide senior expertise in the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of patients admitted to the service, as well as providing specialist assessment and advice to colleagues working on the acute admission wards.

Its also an exciting time to be joining LSCFT as we are expanding our Medical Leadership positions in areas such as suicide prevention, GIRFT, research and Mental Health Law. We also have an extremely active Medical Education department and support our Consultants in becoming Clinical Supervisors and nurturing their interests in this area.
