Come work as a Psychiatrist with Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH)

Richmond Hospital Department of Psychiatry is currently seeking a psychiatrist to join. Position to start immediately.

The Richmond Adult Mental Health Team, based in the community, provides longer-term management of serious and persistent mental health conditions requiring an interdisciplinary treatment team. The majority of referrals are from Family Physicians in the community, the Emergency Department, and the In-Patient Unit.

The Richmond Hospital Psychiatric Assessment Unit (PAU)/ED In-Patient Service provides services to admitted in-patients. The Psychiatrist would provide psychiatric assessment and treatment to patients admitted in medical and surgical wards, consult in the Emergency Department, and collaborate with the primary care team for integrated patient care.

The Richmond Mental Health Out-Patient Services (OPD) is based in Richmond Hospital and provides consultation and short-term management of general mental health conditions of moderate severity. The Out-Patient department also has a robust group program, and the successful candidate would participate in the development of a range of individual and group psychotherapy, running groups, and providing supervision for psychiatry residents.

Richmond Hospital is a fully accredited, 228 acute care bed facility serving a local population of 200,000 with an additional catchment area of almost 120,000. Richmond Hospital is focused on meeting the needs of the people it serves and is seeking a Psychiatrist to provide services to an adult population in a team-based model.

Richmond is one of the fastest-growing municipalities in Metro Vancouver. To meet the growing demand for healthcare services, Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) is planning for the future. Richmond Hospital is undergoing plans for campus-wide expansion and renewal, including the construction of a new acute care tower.
