A Vacancy at Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.
We have an exciting post available for qualified and HCPC registered Clinical or Counselling Psychologists with neuropsychological assessment skills to join our countywide Memory Assessment Service (MAS) for a fixed term contract to cover Maternity Leave.
The Memory Assessment Service is part of the Older People Care Unit, where psychologists are highly valued and form part of wider multidisciplinary teams, including other psychological professionals in some areas (i.e., CBT Therapists and Mental Health Wellbeing Practitioners).
We frequently come together as a wider psychology department for meetings, CPD, regular away days, and time out sessions. In addition, the Care Unit promotes the importance of professional development. We have recently been able to provide access to post-qualification specialist training and would be committed to supporting, empowering, and developing you as an individual. You would also become part of a wider network of psychological professionals across the Trust, facilitated by an Associate Director for Psychological Professions, with regular opportunities to connect.
MAS provides mainly clinic-based assessment and interventions for people over the age of 65 experiencing changes in cognition where a diagnosis of dementia is suspected. The Service has strong links with the Young Onset Dementia team (YOD), Community Mental Health Teams (CMHT), and the Intensive Home Treatment Teams (IHTT).
Clinical work within the team will include completing specialised neuropsychological assessment and supporting the delivery of psychologically informed care, care planning, and supporting MDT colleagues through case discussions, MDT meetings, supervision, and training. This would usually be within identified geographical areas within Nottinghamshire.
You will work closely with service users, carers, and colleagues within the Team and across the Older People Care Unit to deliver high quality care and support service developments. We have excellent relationships with local professional training courses and academic institutions, which also provides further research, supervision, and teaching opportunities.
#TeamNottsHC comprises over 11,000 dedicated colleagues who #MakeADifference every day. We deliver intellectual disability, mental health, community health, forensic, and offender healthcare services across Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, and South Yorkshire. Our care is provided from over 200 sites, spanning community locations, acute settings, and secure environments, including prisons.
We are one of the largest mental health and community Trusts in the East Midlands and one of Nottinghamshire's biggest employers. We also host national and regional services, such as the National High Secure Deaf Service and the Nottingham Centre for Transgender Health.
We offer a variety of employee-led staff networks, including Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) groups, the Green Champions network, the Freedom to Speak Up network, the Health and Wellbeing Champions network, and the Menopause Champions network. These networks play a vital role in supporting our diverse workforce and promoting a culture of inclusivity.
The health and wellbeing of our colleagues is a top priority. We invest significantly in this through our in-house occupational health and staff counselling services, supported by a dedicated Health and Wellbeing team.
The Trust is committed to reducing its carbon emissions, with a specialised Energy and Environmental team working to ensure compliance with environmental legislation, enhance our environmental performance, and achieve our net-zero commitment
The role requires a qualified and HCPC registered Clinical or Counselling Psychologist with neuropsychological assessment skills.
Vacancies are currently based within different localities with Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire and different working patterns could be considered.
Please note applicants will be required to pay for their DBS check. Costs are deducted from salary following appointment. The cost of the DBS application is £26.40 (standard) or £54.40 (enhanced), this cost will be deducted from your salary over the first 2 months of employment.
You are encouraged to enrol for the DBS Update Service. An annual fee of £16 per year applies.
Please note that this post does not meet the pay or skill level required for a Skilled worker visa.
Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of the band in line with Agenda for Change. This salary / skill level is below the minimum required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa.
