The Child, Adolescent and Family service in Canterbury and the Department of Psychological Medicine at the University of Otago Christchurch campus are closely connected through clinical, training and research links and shared workforce. The Christchurch Psychiatric registrar training programme is integrated with Mental Health services here and includes placements in child and adolescent psychiatry. Most of the Consultant Psychiatrists are also Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturers and have access to University resources, including research resources. We also take an active part in training the next generation of psychiatrists, doctors and nurses through lectures, clinical supervision, and support.
Based in Christchurch, you will have access to everything the city and wider Canterbury region have to offer, with beaches, the Port Hills and outdoor recreation close by and the Southern Alps within easy reach.
