Applications are invited from HCPC-registered Applied Psychologists for a new post providing psychological input within acute wards at Mill View hospital. This is an exciting opportunity for an innovative, motivated, creative and enthusiastic applied psychologist interested in working within Adult acute care, to join our existing skilled and motivated multidisciplinary teams.
The post holder will be a key member of the acute clinical teams and must have a strong commitment to multi-disciplinary working. The role is varied and diverse and includes assessment and formulation of people with complex presentations, working with the whole team to develop formulations and care plans, direct interventions with service users and their families, supporting the wider team in their application of psychologically-informed approaches and supervision of colleagues. We are looking for someone with the ability to innovate and implement service improvements. The post-holder will ideally be familiar with working in an NHS setting. Experience in working with people with severe and complex mental health difficulties in crisis (across the age span) is required.
We will support you in this role and provide regular clinical and professional supervision. We believe that the best way to provide outstanding care to our patients is through teamwork and sharing our ideas. We are fortunate to have a neuropsychologist working in our service who provides group supervision in neuropsychology, providing an excellent opportunity for developing your skills in this area. Brighton and Hove has an active psychology network and strong psychology leadership.
We are committed to supporting staff well-being, developing new roles in teams, and have a thriving Recovery College. We have close links with the Clinical Psychology training schemes at Salomons and the University of Surrey. This is an opportunity to join an organisation which sets a high priority on the development of services in collaboration with experts through experience and carers and to work with dedicated and supportive colleagues. The trust is committed to strong integrated, collaborative leadership between managers and clinicians.
