A Vacancy at The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust.
We are looking for a highly motivated, innovative and friendly Band 4 Assistant Practitioner to join our Inpatient Therapy Team here at The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.
We are looking for someone who has previous Therapy Support Worker experience within Physiotherapy and/ or Occupational Therapy teams. Successful post holders will carry a non-complex patient caseload, working with patients from assessment through to discharge.
Additional specific training will be provided by the established therapists to enable successful candidates to provide protocol based therapies and work autonomously delivering patient centred physiotherapy and occupational therapy to our Surgical and Gastroenterological patients. This post covers Surgical and gastroenterology wards
The post holders will assist with supporting patients and families to manage their physical, social and psychological needs and carry their own caseload including advice and support in terms of discharge planning. The post involves working alongside qualified therapists as well as with other members of the support worker team to provide therapy input to patients across the acute Surgical and Gastroenterological wards.
The post holder needs to be flexible, have good time management skills, confident IT skills, and work well in a team as well as independently. Visits out into the community are part of the role therefore post holders will require UK driving licence.
We expect the post holder to manage their own caseload and be able to support or delegate duties appropriately.
We are delighted to be able to offer patients the opportunity of assessment and treatment over the weekend and Bank Holidays which is worked pro rata via a rota.
Within Therapies we have a strong culture of professional leadership and support. Each profession has a head of profession leading on delivering local, regional and national professional strategy. This includes AHP’s into action, job planning, electronic rostering, electronic data capture, quality improvement strategy, and representation at internal and external meetings raising the profile of Therapies at all times.
We are a friendly, forward thinking team working in a fast paced rewarding environment. High quality patient care is at the core of our decision making and we are enthusiastic about welcoming new ideas and staff development.
The team have a robust supervision structure and a strong drive for personal and professional development across all bands and roles facilitating events within the team, department, Trust and externally to enable the best possible care is delivered to patients.
