  • The role will involve working alongside multidisciplinary staff on the ward by participating in meetings and clinical discussions, supporting team supervisions and supporting indirect work with service users.
  • There will be opportunities to participate in the development and delivery of training.
  • Assistant psychologists are supported to access relevant training as part of their role.
  • Assistant Psychologists will be expected to participate in service development and service evaluation projects.
We aim to attract and retain a diverse, talented and committed workforce, who are caring and compassionate, and therefore able to meet the demands of the modern NHS now and in the future. In return we can offer a dynamic working environment in which to build a career.
