Crynodeb

An exciting opportunity has arisen for you to join our Trauma and Orthopaedic Therapy Team as a Senior Occupational Therapist.

This post is based at the Poole site, which is the main Orthopaedic Trauma site for University Hospitals Dorset. This is a fast-paced and dynamic working environment and you will be based within a well-established collaborative, Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy service, with a Band 7 Clinical Specialist OT to support you. You will receive regular supervision and training and have responsibility for the supervision of others and contribute to the team training programme.

This post will also provide you with opportunities to develop managerial skills and contribute to and lead on service development within the team and wider services.

Base - Poole Hospital

Interview Date - TBC

You will have the opportunity to develop specialised skills including high-level assessments; moving and handling; cognitive assessments and interventions; capacity assessments; admission avoidance, and complex discharge planning.

You will have responsibility for a caseload of patients with wide ranging injuries and complexity. Alongside your own caseload you will support other less experienced team members with their caseload. University Hospital Dorset works in partnership with health and community providers within the county to enable the Discharge to Assess and Home First principles.

This role will provide you with the opportunity to support patients within the acute hospital and within their own homes to ensure they receive the right service in the best place for them.

Our values define who we are as #TeamUHD. They underpin everything we do now and in the future. They define how
we treat our patients, visitors, and each other, our valued teammates and colleagues.
UHD are investing in services across the Trust, with many being transformed and developed following merger and the
New Hospital Programme. This means that some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or long term. Recruiting Managers interviewing for this role will be happy to answer any specific questions that you have about this at interview.

This service has a planned move from Poole Hospital site to Royal Bournemouth Hospital site in Spring 2026.

Please note if the role or service is relocated as part of a planned move, employees will not be eligible for excess
mileage reimbursement. Travel from the postholder's home to the new work base will be considered a normal
commute. Any other changes not related to this relocation will be managed according to the relevant Trust or National
terms and conditions

To understand the role in more detail please read the full job description and person specification documents which are attached to this advert.
