He has supervised Assistant Psychologists and Clinical Associate Psychologists and worked closely and collaboratively with AHP colleagues and the wider MDT. His work has had a significant positive impact on the therapeutic milieux of the ward and has supported and enabled the MDT to work more collaboratively, using a bio-psycho-social, person-centred and trauma informed approach to patient care, thinking across the health and care system. Feedback from service users, families and staff alike reflects that George demonstrates huge compassion, enthusiasm, commitment, dedication and vision in his work and a strong desire to take every opportunity to improve patient care. He is emerging as a strong leader and he will go far in his career." ~ Psychological Therapies Service Lead (2024)
