Assistant Psychologist Neuropsychology

There is an exciting opportunity to join the small and friendly Clinical Neuropsychology Department in Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board as an Assistant Psychologist delivering community neurorehabilitation for adults across the Early Supported Discharge (for stroke) and the Community Neurorehabilitation Services. These services cover the Rhondda Cynon Taf and Merthyr Tydfil areas of the Health Board. The Early Supported Discharge Service is based in Prince Charles Hospital and the Community Neurorehabilitation Service in Keir Hardie Health Park, with interventions delivered in the community and from Ysbyty Cwm Rhondda Hospital.

The neuropsychology department is located professionally and managerially within the rapidly developing, supportive and dynamic CTMUHB Health Psychology Service. The current psychology establishment also includes a number of posts in cancer/palliative care, cardiac rehabilitation, critical care, weight management, paediatrics and employee well-being, plus new developments in additional specialties, including diabetes. The Health Psychology Service has close links with the South Wales Clinical Doctorate Training Course and involvement in research, teaching and training.

The post is full-time (37.5 hours per week) and fixed-term for 18 months. The role involves multidisciplinary working alongside the clinical psychologists working across these teams and supporting psychological and cognitive assessments as well as rehabilitation interventions for individuals living with a range of neurological conditions. There is ample opportunity to develop skills in clinical neuropsychology by working with a diverse client group and receiving supervision from clinical psychologists.
