Job Summary
We are pleased to advertise a full-time 8a post based at our PICU in Hull. Due to recent reconfigurations, we are investing in the psychology team to enhance the provision and create a robust and joined up clinical provision across the acute care pathway.
This new team will enable the post holder, alongside their colleagues, to influence and steer the individual service user recovery journey from initial telephone call, to assessment and intervention.
Your role will be pivotal in shaping and improving the service user journey in PICU. Your direct clinical work will be located at the PICU where staff support will also be an equally important focus in terms of providing reflective practice groups, devising formulations with the MDT, training, supervision, and consultation.
Main Duties of the Job

As a PICU team, you will work together to provide trauma informed care to people accessing the service, liaising closely with your community, out of area provider, and inpatient colleagues, sharing formulations and devising care plans that support transitions between community and inpatient settings. Your role will be to support the Principal Psychologist in overseeing and developing psychological provision pathways in the acute care pathway. About Us
We are an award-winning and CQC rated good health and social care Trust delivering integrated services across Hull, East and North Yorkshire. We are a forward-thinking and dynamic Trust with a real commitment to staff development. We value our colleagues and invest in them to ensure they have the right skills to deliver outstanding care. Work-life balance is about having influence and flexibility over when, where, and how you work.
