Job Description
|
The outpatient Neuropsychology Clinic at Samaritan Health Services in Corvallis, Oregon is seeking to hire an early career neuropsychologist to provide comprehensive neuropsychological services for the mid-Willamette valley.
This position will be for a fellowship trained lifespan neuropsychologist. The ideal candidate will be able to provide assessments for geriatrics, adults, and adolescents who present with neurological, cognitive, and behavioral problems due to a wide range of etiologies. Although the bulk of work will be with outpatient evaluations, experience with cognitive rehabilitation and brief inpatient evaluations is desirable. Other opportunities include working with sports medicine and concussion clinics as well as our medical inpatient units.
Although the position is primarily a clinical position, research opportunities are also available. Furthermore, clinical training will be an important part of the job as we are currently in the process of starting an internship program and have active practicum rotations with the local universities. The position will be based out of an integrated primary care clinic that houses an internal medicine group along with health psychology and clinical social workers. As such, we are a fast paced clinic that emphasizes efficiency and excellent patient care alongside collaboration with multidisciplinary teams. Based out of changes in Oregon, we also look to practice out of new and innovative models that are afforded to us by no longer practicing solely in fee for service payment methods.
Candidates must hold a doctorate in Clinical Neuropsychology or Clinical Psychology with a neuropsychology track or sufficient neuropsychology experience from an accredited (APA or CPA) university and be licensed or license-eligible in Oregon. The candidate must also have completed a 2 year post-doctoral residency in Neuropsychology and be eligible for board certification in neuropsychology through the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). Board certification through ABPP in neuropsychology, if not already attained, will be required to be completed within 3 years of employment.
