Crynodeb
The Safety Support Approach (SSA) has been designed to provide additional safety support, particularly increasing psychologist support, to prisons with the overall goal to improve safety outcomes. SSA covers foundation, sustained and targeted levels of support, with the National Psychology Safety Team now recruiting Registered Psychologists to provide ‘targeted support’. The targeted approach is an integrated operational and psychological approach, to effectively support prisons to address the risks and needs that have been identified, through data and evidence available. Identified products will require development, piloting and testing, alongside evaluation and whilst these have yet to be formally agreed, they are likely to cover the breadth of psychologist competencies (assessment, intervention, research, consultancy and training). The goal is to create evidence-based safety approaches and products, which if successful in targeted prisons, can offer a preventative and proactive foundation offer for all sites.
The job holder will join a growing team of psychologists in the National Psychology Safety Team with a vision to innovate and provide direct support to identified prisons. Job holders will be expected to work in collaboration with the National Safety Group, demonstrating a fully integrated approach with joint decision making and governance and are expected to possess skills required to collaborate and influence across a range of departments, agencies, teams and prisons. The job holder will be working with prisoners and staff and applying their experience and competence in the area of psychology to reduce the risk of harm and improve safety outcomes by undertaking assessments and interventions (individual and/ or group), conducting research, providing consultancy and co-designing/ delivering training for staff.
