Job details

Full job description

We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Psychiatrist to join our Nanaimo Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team. As an ACT Psychiatrist, you will play a key role in providing comprehensive psychiatric care and treatment to individuals with severe mental illness (SMI), often accompanied by comorbid substance use disorders and unstable lifestyle/housing. You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team delivering intensive, community-based services aimed at helping clients achieve stability, reduce hospitalizations, and enhance their quality of life.

Clinical Duties:

Conduct comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, assessments, and diagnoses for clients.
Prescribe and monitor psychotropic medications, adjusting treatment plans as needed.
Provide ongoing medication management and psychoeducation to clients and their families.
Collaborate with the ACT team to develop individualized treatment plans tailored to each client's unique needs.
Offer crisis intervention and stabilization services as needed.
Almost all clinical care will be provided through outreach as patients typically have difficulty attending scheduled appointments at the clinic.

Team Collaboration:

Participate in daily or weekly ACT team meetings to review cases and contribute to shared decision-making.
Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team that includes social workers, nurses, case managers, rehab workers, mental health support workers, etc.
Provide clinical leadership and psychiatric expertise to the team to ensure high-quality care.

Community Engagement:

Engage clients in their community settings, including homes, shelters, or other locations, to deliver care in the least restrictive environment possible.
Support clients in accessing additional health services, housing, employment, and social support resources.
Advocate for clients' rights and work to reduce stigma related to mental illness.

Documentation and Compliance:

Maintain accurate and up-to-date clinical records and documentation
Ensure adherence to treatment plans
Remain current on best practices and participate in ongoing professional development.

Community Information:

Nanaimo, an exciting urban community with a breathtaking waterfront, provides an opportunity to enjoy an active exciting lifestyle with a multitude of year-round recreational opportunities including golf, mountain biking and walking trails, kayaking, paddle boarding and sailing, or dive to explore three artificial reefs created by wrecks sunk in the harbour. In winter, both downhill and cross-country skiing can be enjoyed at Mount Washington, just 1.5 hours north. This vibrant, growing city of 97,000 boasts its own symphony and theater, offers post-secondary education at the Vancouver Island University, is just 15 minutes by seaplane to downtown Vancouver and a short drive to Victoria.
