Are you ready to take on an exiting new challenge as part of a dynamic Therapy Services support team?

Consider joining us as a Therapy Assistant Practitioner and help us to deliver a high quality service to our patients.

You will have the opportunity to work alongside qualified Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists as part of a dedicated support team and be able to take an active role in pre-and post-operative care of patients.

Alongside your clinical caseload you will expected to take on non-clinical duties as required., Following all appropriate training, you will be responsible for managing your own caseload of joint replacement patients.

Following these assessments you will treat, progress and discharge this group of patients and make referrals to local and national services.

The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest specialist orthopaedic units in Europe. We offer planned orthopaedic surgery to people locally, nationally and internationally.

Our Trust is a very special hospital; big enough to deliver world class services and small enough to offer exceptional patient and staff experience. We offer a working experience unique in the West Midlands and we're always on the lookout for passionate people to join our award-winning team.

The Trust is committed to the Disability Confident Interview Scheme and will offer an interview to disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria for a vacancy and consider them on their abilities.
