Full Job Description

To work as a member of the Therapy team, independently assessing and treating a designated caseload of patients through individual and group work, as appropriate.
The post holder will be responsible for coordinating a specific area of therapy for patients within the relevant team, under the guidance of qualified therapy staff. This may require the post holder to work as a lone therapy practitioner at times, within agreed guidelines, protocols and competency frameworks.
The post holder will provide skilled support to registered Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists and other therapy staff in delivering technical therapy interventions to patients in a variety of clinical settings.
Therapy intervention will be provided in line with agreed treatment plans, guidelines and protocols, with the aim of promoting independence and supporting patients to achieve a level of function consistent with their abilities.
The Trust is committed to providing a 7-day therapy service. The role therefore includes participation in weekend working and may include evening work, according to service need.
This reflects the existing purpose of the role, which includes independent assessment and treatment of a designated caseload, support to registered therapists, lone working at times, and participation in 7-day therapy provision.

Here at George Eliot our vision to'excel at patient care' takes centre stage. An ever evolving clinically-led acute service provider we are on a journey to continually provide high quality, safe and responsive services delivered by inspiring, friendly and compassionate staff who share our corporate values which underpin everything we do. Our values are not just words on a piece of paper, they bond us together, reflect our ambition and shape who we are
