Crynodeb
Adult Social Care in Cornwall is changing and we’re looking for passionate professionals to help shape a best-in-class model that puts people first. The Independent and Wellbeing Service, based in West Cornwall, is seeking a dedicated Vision Rehabilitation Specialist to support adults with sight loss. You’ll carry out strength-based assessments, provide expert advice, and work closely with Occupational Therapists and other social care professionals to promote independence and wellbeing.
The Role:
Your key role will be to ensure that people who experience sight loss, their families and communities have the right support in place at the right time and in the right place.
The focus of the role will be on promoting safety and independence; preventing, reducing and delaying the need for care and support; by providing advice, information, rehabilitation, equipment and adaptations to promote their wellbeing and independence. You will work closely with health partners and primary care networks and be part of a growing community intervention offer that brings together professionals from different disciplines to deliver better outcomes.
You’ll have the opportunity to help shape new pathways for the visually impaired. Your focus will be on early intervention—giving people the advice and tools they need to reduce or delay the need for long-term care.
Working Pattern:
We presently have one vacancy 37 hours per week; Monday to Friday 08:45 to 17:15
Flexible working pattern is an option.
What you’ll need to succeed
You will need to hold a qualification recognised by the Rehabilitation Workers Professional Network (RWPN) and be registered or willing to register with RWPN prior to commencing employment.
We’re looking for a qualified professional with experience in vision rehabilitation. You’ll be someone who values person-centred care and puts people’s wishes at the heart of decisions. You’ll be a team player who shares knowledge and supports others to grow and is committed to continuous learning and high practice standards.
This is a public/customer-facing role, where the statutory English language requirement for public sector workers applies.
This position will be subject to a enhanced criminal record disclosure check.

What you’ll get in return:
Cornwall Council’s ambition is to be an employer of choice, a high-performing council, and a learning organisation. We offer a comprehensive reward and benefits package to attract, motivate and support our employees.
We invest in our practitioners, offering career progression and recognition for your commitment and expertise. If you’re passionate about professional development and improving outcomes for the people you support, we’ll provide the opportunities and rewards to match.
In recognition of the vital contribution you make, we offer an attractive package of benefits including:
A competitive starting salary via Green Book, with potential for progression
Relocation support for eligible applicants
A tailored induction to meet your learning needs
Regular case and reflective supervision with a professional Vision Rehabilitation Specialist

Flexible working options, including part-time hours and homeworking
Access to Research in Practice resources
Payment of your membership with the Rehabilitation Workers Professional Network (RWPN)
