Swydd-ddisgrifiad a phrif gyfrifoldebau manwl
There are 3 AMHTs across Oxfordshire. They are North and West (bases in Banbury and Witney), Oxford City and North East (bases in Oxford City and Bicester), and South (bases in Abingdon, Didcot, Wantage and Wallingford in Oxfordshire), with satellite clinics based throughout the county in market towns.
AMHTs in the North and West, and the South provide care 7 days per week, 7am to 9pm but the City is Monday to Friday 9am to 5 pm due to additional care available from a Crisis team. Consultants work part time across the week, covering 9 to 5 Monday to Friday and provide senior leadership to the team alongside the Operational Manager and non-medical Clinical Lead of each team. Staff within the AMHTs work around Consultants and catchment areas that correspond as much as possible to specific geographical areas and GP surgeries. This enables maximum familiarity with these patients and better links with the corresponding GPs in their Primary Care Networks (PCN).
The AMHT’s work closely with primary care, from where they receive most of their referrals. Our new Primary Care Hubs receive most routine referrals and AMHTs triage the remainder of referral and allocate patients for assessments, following which, patients may be taken on by members of the AMHT for acute or longer-term treatment or signposted to other services or agencies as appropriate.
