In our quest to deliver patient-focused quality care we are looking to recruit a highly motivated, innovative and enthusiastic Senior Psychologist to join our forward thinking, friendly and expanding EOS Service, based at HMP Bronzefield. By joining our Surrey Prisons Health Care Team, you will not only look after the healthcare needs of the prisoners but also have a real impact on promoting health and well-being. We are keen to recruit someone with a passion for working with women in custody, and those who have experienced trauma, adversity and offending. We work with high risk, complex women and offer supervision, support and training for the workforce who form the network around these women, as well as individual assessment, formulation and ongoing psychological support for the women themselves.
Working in partnership with the criminal justice system and other agencies, as part of the Offender Personality Disorder Service we provide responsive, dependable and high-quality psychological work within the female estate, based in HMP Bronzefield. We work with operational and clinical staff in a close partnership to enable imprisoned women ‘stuck’ in the system to move through a progression pathway.
