About The Position

The OSUMC Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health Neuropsychology Clinic evaluates adults with cognitive concerns. Neuropsychological tests measure cognitive skills such as memory, problem-solving, information processing, attention, and psychomotor speed. These evaluations are a critical part of the long-term management of patients with neurological and psychiatric disorders (e.g., traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, mood disorders, and others). Non-clinical evaluations are also sometimes completed, which may relate to issues such as disability status. A psychometrist greets patients, administers neuropsychological tests to adults with cognitive complaints scores, and records data, maintains clinic materials (e.g., test protocols), and enters test scores into an Excel spreadsheet.
