Board eligibility would be advantageous, however not required.
Our ideal candidate will be a consistent and flexible individual, who enjoys interdisciplinary collaboration. The incumbent may perform other related tasks that are a part of the agency's operation. The ability to function in an environment controlled by HIPAA and CMS regulations is required. This position also offers exciting opportunities to provide supervision to doctoral students enrolled in Clinical and Counseling Psychology PhD programs at Florida State University. Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare is a private, not-for-profit health care system serving 17 counties in North Florida and South Georgia. TMH includes a 772-bed acute care hospital and a variety of services to meet health needs across the lifespan.
TMH has an ongoing research partnership with Florida State University. This provides a
unique opportunity to be involved in the most dynamic and all-encompassing medical research program in the state. Besides the possibility of conducting laboratory research, being included in clinical trials with university researchers from the medical school as well as other colleges and departments, the individual in this position may also serve as member of the FSU College of Medicine clinical faculty.
Best known as Florida's state capital, Tallahassee offers many enticing cultural and recreational opportunities. A highly educated population and a setting seeped in deep history, makes it a great place to live. Often described as "The Other Florida" with its rolling hills, mild climate, Southern-style hospitality and canopy roads of moss-draped oaks, it is a Florida few have seen.
