What are the responsibilities and job description for the Psychiatrist (part-time consultant) position at Liberty Healthcare Corporation Career Center?
Psychiatrists are encouraged to consider a unique part-time consulting opportunity with Liberty Healthcare at DHCI - a skilled nursing facility located in Smyrna, Delaware.
In this role, you will provide psychiatric care to older adults; people who have loss of cognitive functioning: individuals who have experienced traumatic brain injury; those who are experiencing mental illness; people who have substance use disorders; and those experiencing end of life issues.
While you’re with us, you will collaborate with our medical and nursing staff; conduct mental status examinations, formulate diagnoses, and develop and implement treatment plans; prescribe and manage medications; and provide psychiatric consultation and education to clinical staff as well as patients’ families and guardians.
