Come work as an Early Psychosis Intervention Program Adult Psychiatrist with Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH)

The city of North Vancouver is a dynamic urban municipality, which combines specialty shopping, thriving commercial areas and diverse housing. It is also an important maritime centre and transportation hub for the Greater Vancouver Regional District. Located at the edge of BC’s Coast Mountain range, North Vancouver is a scenic gateway to an enormous wilderness playground that contributes greatly to the quality of life of its citizens. With a favourable coastal climate characterized by mild winters and warm summers, it is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy sailing, swimming, cycling and skiing. In addition, the Coastal region includes the North Shore, and Coast Garibaldi, Sea-to-Sky, Sunshine Coast, Powell River, Bella Bella and Bella Coola. This unique and beautiful landscape offers the best of the West Coast experience.

Early Psychosis Intervention (EPI): EPI programming is a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to treating and supporting young adults (age 13-30) who are experiencing early and first episode psychosis. EPI programming is grounded in the fundamental principle that early identification and treatment for psychosis optimizes response to treatment, decreases the impact of psychosis, and preserves the individual’s functional and social skills. The EPI program will be providing full fidelity services to clients living on the North Shore and complimentary virtual services to clients living in the rural and remote communities of the Coastal region (Sea to Sky, Sunshine Coast, Powell River, Bella Bella and Bella Coola).

Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) is seeking expressions of interest from qualified adult psychiatrists with an expertise or interest in working at the Early Psychosis Intervention (EPI) program based at the HOpe Centre for a 0.2-0.4 FTE position.

In accordance with the standards of practice and the established vision and values of VCH, the psychiatrist who accepts this position will assess, diagnose and provide specialized treatment for clients between the ages of 18-30 experiencing early psychosis across the Coastal Community of Care. The psychiatrist works in collaboration with other psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, peer support workers, occupational therapists, social workers, clinical counsellors, clients and their families to provide comprehensive early psychosis care and treatment. The psychiatrist will serve as a resource in symptom management of psychosis with a strong knowledge base in psychopharmacology. Reporting to the Medical Leader of the Coastal EPI Program, the psychiatrist will be a part of providing evidence-based treatment interventions and will participate in the training and education of medical students, residents and other allied health professionals. Opportunities for the planning, implementation and evaluation of new programs as well as research projects and group work may exist as well.

The psychiatrist will provide a minimum of 2-4 half-days of work per week in a blended billing model (Sessional and Fee-for-service). Physicians are responsible for their own billings.
