Summary
A Vacancy at Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust.
Are you a band 7 or an experienced band 6 looking to work in a dynamic and fast moving community rehab service?
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly specialist OT/PT to be part of our Rehabilitation team which is part of Westminster CIS (Tri-borough service in Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea and Westminster).
You will be able to provide decisive and effective therapy input and will demonstrate leadership qualities, excellent communication skills and have a flexible approach when working under pressure. You will be passionate about the value of community rehabilitation and preventing hospital admissions.
This post will give opportunity to experience a wealth of learning and development. You will work alongside and show leadership in a responsive dynamic MDT who put high quality, patient centred care at the heart of what they do. We strive to provide first class, client-centred, goal focused therapy to patients in the community.
The caseload will be split between community and Pathway 3, step down patients within nursing homes with support of MDT. Caseload is comprised predominantly of adults who may present with multiple complex health needs in community. As such, you will have the opportunity to develop a wide range of clinical skills and interests in areas such as discharge planning, falls and frailty, manual handling, orthopaedics, general medical and surgical conditions. An understanding of the management of multi-pathology patients and the impact that psychological/cognitive factors may have is desirable.
This role will be based across Ellesmere and Forrester Court Care Homes and the office base is Hathaway House in W9.
Vaccination
The successful applicant will have contact with patients or service users. As an NHS Trust we strongly encourage and support vaccination as this remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and of course patients and service users when working on our healthcare settings.
CNWL is a fantastic trust to continue your Physiotherapy/Occupational Therapy career:
• We have a Community Strategy to enable us to align with the NHS England Ageing Well Community Strategy of which AHPs have a key opportunity.
• We have a dedicated Director of AHPs, a Professional Lead OT and a Professional Lead Physiotherapist.
• We have an annual therapies conference.
• We pride ourselves on having an ambitious and exemplary People Plan
If you come and work with us, we will ensure you are able to follow your clinical and leadership development priorities identified through your personal development and appraisal plan. We will equip you for mobile working and actively support flexible working practice. You will be invited to our monthly professional and team in-service learning events, have access to a large catalogue of learning and development opportunities offered by CNWL and a whole host of staff benefits and discounts, including season tickets, flexible working opportunities etc.
You will enjoy the rewards of working with a client group for whom you can make a significant difference every day, and you will experience the strong motivation of being part of a supportive multi-agency effort which includes Medical, Mental Health, Nursing, Allied Health Professional, Social care and Reablement staff.
You will complete complex assessments and interventions and will make high impact clinical decisions. You will be expected to work autonomously whilst drawing assistance from other colleagues in primary and secondary care.
You will use evidence based principles/current best practise and specialist skills to assess, plan, implement and evaluate interventions and to ensure that all members of your team do so accordingly.
As a lead Physiotherapist/Occupational Therapist within the team, you will provide excellent supervision and guidance, to junior therapist and therapy students to deliver evidence based rehabilitation. You will manage your own caseload, providing individual Physiotherapy/Occupational Therapy assessments and access visits to patients in their own homes and care homes. You will lead on manual handling, pressure care and equipment needs within the team and support the team lead. You will deputise for the Therapy lead as appropriate.
