OBJECTIVE
Psychiatrists appointed to National Health Service (NHS) consultant posts in the United Kingdom before a specific date in 1995 qualified for early retirement and this has implications for workforce planning.
METHODS
The author reflects on the implications this has for ageing psychiatrists and for relationships between psychiatrists and patients and families using mental health services, from the perspective of a psychiatrist who took advantage of the opportunity to retire early from a consultant post in the NHS and to develop a new career.
RESULTS
Older psychiatrists continuing to practise after retirement from consultant roles may bring disadvantages and advantages.
CONCLUSIONS
Older psychiatrists may be a valuable resource for future mental health services, and they may be in a position to try out new ways of working which might be relevant to their younger colleagues in the uncertain future faced by mental health services at a time of austerity.
目的
在1995年某个特定日期之前被任命担任英国国民健康服务体系（NHS）顾问职位的精神科医生有资格提前退休，这对劳动力规划有影响。
方法
作者从一位利用机会从NHS顾问职位提前退休并开展新职业的精神科医生的角度，思考这对老年精神科医生以及精神科医生与使用心理健康服务的患者及家庭之间的关系所产生的影响。
结果
从顾问职位退休后仍继续执业的老年精神科医生可能带来弊端和益处。
结论
老年精神科医生可能是未来心理健康服务的宝贵资源，并且在心理健康服务在紧缩时期面临不确定未来的情况下，他们可能有能力尝试新的工作方式，这些方式可能与年轻同事相关。
