Description

Are you interested in a role where every day is different and where you can use a variety of psychology skills? If so, we are looking for a caring and innovative clinical psychologist to join us.

There is a huge variety of work within this role and you will undertake neuro-psychological assessments which may contribute to a diagnosis of dementia as well as provide a range of post-diagnostic therapeutic options.

These include providing groups and individual therapy for people with dementia as well as for their carers. You will also work with patients who have co-existing mental health needs in addition to their cognitive difficulties.

The service works with care homes to help with residents whose behaviour challenges their care givers and you will provide psychological expertise to this part of the service.

You will also provide consultation to help promote psychological thinking within the MDT and the wider system around the patient.
