OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
Occupational Therapy Apprenticeship
Therapy services at Dorset County Hospital are excited to be developing therapy apprenticeships.
The successful candidate will be a trainee in Occupational Therapy (OT) and will complete a BSc (Hons) degree in Occupational Therapy as a Level 6 Apprentice. This will encompass teaching from the University, workplace learning and full time clinical placements over a 4 year period.
On successful completion of the End Point Assessment you will be in a position to apply for a qualified B5 OT position.
Your role as an apprentice is to develop the required skills and knowledge to learn to provide effective Occupational Therapy assessment and intervention with individuals who are experiencing difficulties with occupational performance. You will learn to assess needs, agree goals, implement intervention plans and evaluate progress in partnership with the individual and their relevant family members/carers.
