Summary
We have an opportunity for a Band 3 Technical Instructor to join the Children’s Occupational Therapy Team on a 1 year fixed term contract working with children across Northumberland. The post holder will have the opportunity to experience working with children with developmental co-ordination disorders and physical disabilities. Experience of working in these areas is desirable but not essential. You may be working with families, carers, health and social care services, schools and nurseries in a variety of community settings. School and home based assessments will include environmental assessment for equipment and minor adaptations; consequently you will need to meet transport requirements for the post.
We can offer you a chance to work in a well-established occupational therapy service sharing knowledge and resources. You will be helping the occupational therapists in the team with their assessments and interventions by working with people and their support networks to achieve individualised goals. We want you to feel able to use your personal communication skills and ideas within our service.
We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, in addition to our state-of-the-art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England. We also care for people in their homes and provide services from facilities in local communities such as health centres. We give people greater choice and control over their care to help them to live independently at home and avoid hospital admission where appropriate.High quality patient care is at the heart of everything we do and we strive to ensure every single patient and service user has an exceptional experience with us. We have one of the most extensive patient experience programmes of any trust in England.
