Located at Fairfield General Hospital in Bury are 2 adult acute mental health wards, one female and one male. We are currently recruiting for both inpatient settings, we have a range of nursing experience working with us from Clinical Excellence Lead, senior nurses, Staff Nurses and Healthcare Support Workers. We have an inpatient Consultant Psychiatrist dedicated to each ward, who are supported by a staff grade, GP trainee and Foundation Year Doctor. We also have a Psychologist that covers both our inpatient wards and they are very keen to be involved in patient Psychosocial work and trauma informed care. We currently have 2 Occupational Therapists who cover our wards to support patients in their progress from hospital to the home environment.
We are very keen to be involved in Quality Improvement work within our inpatients services. We have recently completed a QI project with the Royal College of Psychiatry around Sexual Safety and were very successful in implementing changes to ours wards to ensure the sexual safety of our patients were maintained for our staff and patients. We are currently finalising a QI project in reducing violence and aggression and looking forward to finalising this project very soon. We are also under-going a QI project currently around improving our delivery of medicine management.
