Role Overview
This post offers a varied caseload across inpatient and outpatient settings, providing neuropsychological assessment and brief intervention for adults with a wide range of neurological and neurosurgical conditions, including stroke, brain injury and tumour.
Key Responsibilities
- To work as a highly specialist Clinical Neuropsychologist providing high-quality neuropsychological assessment and, where appropriate, intervention to patients with neurological conditions and their families across outpatient and inpatient settings.
- To provide advice, consultation, supervision, teaching and training to other professionals and non-professional carers as appropriate.
- To work autonomously within professional guidelines and the overall framework, policies and procedures of the Neuropsychology Department and the Essex Neurosciences Service.
- To actively support and collaborate with the Consultant Clinical Neuropsychology in development of the service, and to utilise research skills for audit, policy development and research within the area served by the team.

The department is committed to high-quality, evidence-based care and offers supervision, CPD, and opportunities for teaching and training.

About Us

- We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 346,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.

- We run a Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub. These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.
