About The Organisation
Here at NHS Lanarkshire, we put the patient at the heart of everything we do. Each colleague within the organisation plays a key role in how we deliver our healthcare services.
We proudly serve a population of 655,000 across rural and urban communities in both North and South Lanarkshire. NHS Lanarkshire is comprised of Acute Services (which currently provide hospital based services over 3 main sites), Corporate & Property & Support Services, North and South Lanarkshire Health and Social Care Partnerships which provide integrated primary healthcare and social care services to local communities and surrounding areas.
The Role
To provide high-quality, efficient, effective support and assistance to the Digital Service within wider Psychological Services.
The Digital Psychological Service is all about improving access to psychological resources, utilising the ever-expanding array of technological resources available. A key aspect of this involves the provision of high-quality, evidence-based, online therapeutic content. The post-holder will primarily assist with this work, in particular by writing supportive online reviews for people engaging with digital therapeutic courses. Data analysis and small-scale research will also be a part of the role, and there will be scope for involvement with wider service development, including the Lanarkshire Mind Matters website.
Please note this is a fixed term post for 12 months. Where a post only has temporary funding and an existing member of NHS Lanarkshire staff wishes to apply, this will be treated as a secondment. The employee MUST already have written agreement from their line manager to be released on a secondment before applying for the post.
