About Us
Alfred Mental & Addiction Health is responsible for the operation of services which focus on people with a mental illness residing in the Inner South Eastern area of Melbourne.
About the Role
The Emergency Psychiatry team is comprised of dedicated and compassionate mental health clinicians. We celebrate diversity within our workforce and are a socially active team with a genuine interest in each other's wellbeing. We set high standards and our team is committed to delivering timely and effective care to individuals in need, ensuring their well-being and promoting recovery. We also value higher learning and have our own practice development clinicians who are dedicated to supporting the professional growth of clinicians to provide the best care possible.
This role is incredibly unique and diverse, branching across four main areas – Crisis Assessment and Treatment, Triage, Emergency Psychiatry and APACER.
