Allied Health Professions
There are 14 unique and diverse professionals considered to be Allied Health Professionals, 11 of which work within our workforce.
Allied Health Professionals (AHPs) are integral to most clinical pathways in the organisation and work across organisational boundaries, providing solution-focused, goal-centred care to support patients' independence and help with day to day living.
AHPs are essential members of our workforce and support patients across physical health, mental health, learning disability services, in the hospital environment, clinics, in the community, and alongside other professionals such as nurses, GPs, hospital doctors and social workers. Our AHP staff work at all levels with the opportunity to develop from newly qualified all the way to consultant practitioners.
As well as registered AHPs, we also have unregistered staff working alongside them in the teams, who are vital in supporting the delivery of treatment plans. We are able to offer apprenticeship programmes for occupational therapy and are currently working to develop other AHP apprenticeship opportunities.
We are committed to support the education of our AHPs and to support the education of our future workforce. We also take AHP students and support work experience opportunities.

Psychology
Our Psychology teams play a vital role in supporting the emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing of people across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
Working alongside multidisciplinary colleagues, they help people understand and manage a wide range of challenges that may be affecting their mental health, behaviour, relationships or ability to cope with everyday life.
Our psychologists work across a variety of services and settings, supporting children, young people, adults and older people, as well as those with learning disabilities, long term physical health conditions and complex mental health needs. Their work may involve one to one therapy, family interventions, group work, consultation and supporting wider teams to deliver psychologically informed care.
As an organisation, we are committed to embedding psychology throughout our services. Our teams are involved not only in direct patient care, but also in service development, research, teaching and supervision, helping to continually improve the quality and effectiveness of the care we provide.
