Summary
The dual role involves working in a Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) and the acute in-patient setting (Older Adult wards Cedar and Rowan), where Psychologists are highly valued and form part of a wider multidisciplinary team, including other psychological professions (i.e. assistant psychologists, Mental Health Wellbeing Practitioners). The post offers the opportunity for a variety of work including delivering psychological therapy, completing specialised neuropsychological assessments, providing clinical supervision, developing and delivering therapeutic in-patient groups, supporting the wider team through team formulation, consultation, and supervision and contributing to the identity of the wider Older Adult network across the trust footprint. As a network, we are currently involved in several service development projects including pathways for psychological therapies for complex emotional needs, workforce development, community services transformation and the ambitions of living well. Psychologists are integral to this process, and you would have opportunity to both support and participate in these developments. In addition, you would become part of a wider network of Psychologists across the Trust, facilitated by the Associate Network Director for the South Network and Older Peoples services. We also have excellent relationships with the three North West Clinical Doctorate courses and the related institutions, which also provides further research, supervision, and teaching opportunities.
