Managerial psychiatrist positions with competitive salaries are available on Rikers Island with NYC’s Correctional Health Services
The New York City jail system is the second largest in the nation. Correctional Health Services (CHS), a division of NYC Health + Hospitals, provides safe, holistic, and evidence-based psychiatric care for people in the City’s custody. We address a range of mental health needs, from serious mental illness to the natural struggles that accompany incarceration. CHS’ mental health service provides some of the most comprehensive and unique treatment modalities in the country including:

• specialty housing units for individuals with serious mental illness;
• a 24-hour on-call psychiatric service;
• robust creative arts programming;
• clinics in each of the facilities;
• substance use treatment including medication-assisted treatment (MAT);
• integrated re-entry services that include alternatives to incarceration; and
• partnerships with multiple academic training institutions throughout the city.

Correctional Health Services offers a rich and stimulating clinical and academic environment for psychiatrists interested in public health, community psychiatry, trauma, serious mental illness, and forensic psychiatry. Psychiatrists are matched with populations that most closely meet their clinical interests and expertise. Specific populations include young adults, women, individuals with serious mental illness, and medically complex individuals. Experience working in correctional settings is not required; however, the ability to work closely and effectively with multiple other disciplines, including security staff, is critical.

In addition to direct patient care, managerial psychiatrists serve as the psychiatric leaders of their facilities and work in close collaboration with Mental Health Unit Chiefs and Clinical Supervisors. A major component of this position is training, recruiting, and retaining high-quality staff, while providing strong leadership and mentorship for existing staff. Managerial psychiatrists receive close supervision by senior psychiatric leadership to support their clinical and professional development. They also receive opportunities to participate in quality improvement initiatives and to supervise trainees from psychiatric residency and forensic fellowship programs.

Starting salary for supervising psychiatrists is $270K annually, with robust benefits including pension, insurance, etc.

Opening for C-L Fellow
The Division of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry at Mount Sinai Beth Israel has an unexpected opening for a C-L fellow for the upcoming 2023-2024 academic year. Our C-L fellowship program is based out of Mount Sinai Beth Israel in New York City. Our Division of Consultation-Liaison (C-L) Psychiatry formed in 1968, established its fellowship program in 1986 and was one of the first in the nation to receive accreditation from the American Council on Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). Our program has trained over 60 fellows, many of whom have taken on nationwide leadership roles in C-L Psychiatry following completion of the program.

Our fellowship is constantly evolving to meet the needs of the ever-changing C-L Psychiatry landscape. The program offers fellows an opportunity to hone their skills across inpatient and outpatient settings, encompassing a wide range of services and acuity levels. Each setting creates a unique learning environment under the mentorship of senior faculty with diverse backgrounds. We encourage our fellows to engage beyond the program in order to grow professionally during their fellowship year. Whether through professional associations/academies, research or quality improvement, we believe that our strength as C-L psychiatrists must be fostered beyond the clinical training environment. As part of the Mount Sinai Health System, our fellows have access to a broad range of cutting-edge resources that set them up for success. All of this happens in a supportive and professionally nurturing environment, focusing on each fellow’s goals, allowing them to maximize their learning over the academic year.

For further information, please see the link below for our webpage: https://icahn.mssm.edu/education/residencies-fellowships/list/msbi-psychosomatic-fellowship as well as our Instagram @msbiclfellowship. Interested applicants should reach out to Seema Quraishi MD, C-L Fellowship Program Director at [email protected] or call 212-420-4094.

Research Studies & Recruitment

Depression and Bone Health Study at NY Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University
Depression and some antidepressants may be associated with an increased risk of breaking a bone. It is not clear why this could be the case. It is possible that depression and/or certain medications used for the treatment of depression cause bone loss, increase the risk of falls, are associated with lower physical activity, or effects on muscle function. Alternatively, it is possible that other medical problems or medications commonly used in those with depression are the culprit. This study is designed to assess mechanisms that might underlie the observation that depression and/or its treatment may increase the risk of breaking a bone. This is a study in women after menopause who have decided under the care of their personal doctor to take anti-depressants or receive counseling/psychotherapy for depression, low mood or depressive symptoms. This study does not provide treatment for depression. In this study, women will be asked to come for 5-7 visits over the course of 18 months to collect information about bone health including information from questionnaires, lab tests, bone density testing (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry or DXA), body composition and muscle testing. We will compare changes in musculoskeletal health in those being treated with and without medication to determine the factors that influence changes in bone density and other indices. Contact Mariana Bucovsky 212-305-7225 or [email protected]
Further information about the study can be found at https://recruit.cumc.columbia.edu/studyinfopage/2489
