We are seeking a unit psychiatrist for two of the 8-bed units at the RTF.   The position includes consultation with staff as well as on-going evaluation and direct treatment of patients.  The total time needed is apx. 20 hours weekly.  If the right candidate is seeking more extended hours, up to full-time, an extension of responsibilities may be possible.  We anticipate opening a new 24-bed RTF in Brooklyn early in 2012 (see below), and are seeking a candidate who may be interested in developing substantial additional responsibilities there in the coming years.

Child psychiatry credentials, while helpful, are not required. However, a background in psychodynamically oriented inpatient work with adolescents and young adults is needed.

Salary for this position will be pro-rated based on $124,500 for full time (40 hrs.).  Paid holidays and 4 weeks vacation are included.  If the position is at least half time (20 hrs./week), a significant benefit package will also be included.
