Clinical Psychologists: Vacancies
(asked on 30th April 2025) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government what is the current vacancy rate for clinical psychologists.
This question was answered on 9th May 2025
The Department does not hold the information requested. NHS England publishes quarterly National Health Service hospital trust vacancy and job advert data. The publication sets out vacancy rates for total NHS trust staff and, separately, for registered nurses and doctors at a national and regional level. The latest data for December 2024 shows that the vacancy rate for total NHS trust staff was 7.2%. The data is not detailed enough to identify vacancy rates for clinical psychologists.
