Working with older people is highly rewarding, and allows Applied Psychologists to use their diverse knowledge, skills and leadership. In both CMHT and inpatient services, you will be assessing, formulating, and delivering interventions to older people often with complex mental health needs and/or neurocognitive conditions such as dementia, stroke, or Parkinsons Disease. There are opportunities for cognitive assessment and neuropsychological assessment, under the supervision of a Clinical Psychologist. You will attend Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) meetings, contributing to person-centred care planning, whilst promoting psychological ways of thinking. Audit, service evaluation, and Quality Improvement projects are strongly encouraged, and BSMHFT offers good training to develop your skills in this area. There are opportunities for supervising Assistant Psychologists, student psychologists from the University of Birmingham and Birmingham City University, Clinical Associate Psychologists (CAP) and Mental Health Wellbeing Practitioners (MHWP), as well as Trainees from the University of Birminghams Clinical Psychology Doctorate programme. There are opportunities to develop and deliver CPD training sessions to staff and teams, as well as staff support, e.g., reflective practice.
