Guidelines on job planning for practitioner psychologists in the NHS and social care
The job planning working group has produced this guidance for practitioner psychologists working in NHS Trusts and Health Boards to guide the job planning process.
21 November 2023
Job planning is important in helping services to effectively deliver high quality outcomes for service users and allowing individual staff to be clear about the activities required to deliver those outcomes.
Job planning processes are now widely used and recommended in the NHS (NHSE/I, 2020) but specific national guidance for Practitioner Psychologists and psychological professionals either does not exist or is out of date.
