A career with Psychiatry UK allows you to expand your knowledge, enhance your skills, and gain valuable life experience—all while enjoying the flexibility of a remote full-time or part-time role. As part of a leading online mental health service, you'll collaborate with innovative, forward-thinking professionals in a dynamic, multidisciplinary team committed to making a real difference. The ADHD Continuing Care Prescriber will be responsible for providing ongoing prescribing and monitoring for adults with ADHD, ensuring safe, effective, and patient-centred care. The role focuses on continuity of treatment through regular medication reviews and the management of patients whose shared care arrangements with their GP have been declined. Working within established clinical pathways, the post holder will not initiate or titrate ADHD medication but will oversee ongoing prescribing in line with NICE guidelines, Psychiatry UK policies, and clinical governance standards. The role requires close collaboration with Consultant Psychiatrists and the wider multidisciplinary team, alongside a strong focus on risk assessment, safeguarding, and proactive patient communication. A significant part of this role involves managing repeat prescribing processes using both electronic and paper-based prescription systems. As such, the successful candidate will be highly organised, detail-oriented, and comfortable working within structured prescribing workflows. This position offers a clear development pathway for clinicians looking to progress their prescribing career. We provide training and exposure to ADHD medication titration, enabling successful candidates to develop the skills and experience required to advance into a Specialist Prescriber role.

Conduct risk assessments, identify safeguarding concerns, and escalate issues in accordance with organisational policies. Maintain accurate, confidential, and legally compliant clinical records using digital systems. Participate in audits, quality improvement initiatives, and prescribing reviews to support clinical governance. Engage in clinical supervision, team learning, and continuous professional development to maintain high standards of practice. Contribute to the development and improvement of prescribing pathways, annual review processes, and service delivery. To succeed as our ADHD Ongoing Care Prescriber, you will have: Possess advanced IT and digital literacy skills, with the ability to work effectively in a remote environment and confidently utilise digital health platforms. You will be capable of managing an independent caseload autonomously, demonstrating excellent organisational and clinical decision-making skills.

You should have a good understanding of relevant legislation, professional standards, and current developments relating to ADHD service provision and prescribing practice. Experience of working collaboratively within multidisciplinary and multi-agency teams is important, alongside a compassionate, patient-centred approach and a non-judgemental attitude. The role requires familiarity with ADHD rating scales and validated screening and monitoring tools, as well as a sound understanding of safeguarding procedures, particularly within remote and digital care settings.
