We are pleased to announce an exciting opportunity for a Band 4 Therapy Assistant to work within the Stroke Therapy Team at University Hospitals Dorset.
We are looking for a motivated and compassionate individual to join our Stroke Therapy team. You will work closely with Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, and Speech and Language Therapists to support the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of people following stroke.
The key responsibilities of this role would be to work alongside therapists in assessing and rehabilitating stroke patients, organisation and co-ordination of therapy groups, and to support qualified therapists in discharge processes such as access visits.
Administrative responsibilities will be required within this role to support the qualified therapists.
Previous experience of working with stroke patients, in an acute hospital or community setting is essential. The post holder must have a Foundation Degree in health or assistant practitioner qualification equivalent.
The post will include 7 day working and therefore the post holder will be expected to participate in weekend rotas. You will be required to achieve a certain competency level which we will give you support and training to help you achieve. We have a structured in- house training programme and a
supportive team of clinical staff.
Ideally you should be a car driver with a full driving licence and have access to your own car. The role may include assessing patients in their home environment, with support as required from the qualified clinicians.
We welcome full time or part time applicants.
Base Location: Royal Bournemouth Hospital
Interview Date: 19th February 2026
UHD are investing, developing and transforming Trust services in line with the New Hospital Programme. As part of this, some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or permanently. Recruiting Managers will be happy to answer any service-specific questions at interview.
If a role or service relocates as part of a planned move, excess mileage will not be reimbursed. Travel from home to the new work base will be classed as a normal commute. Any other changes will be managed under Trust or national terms and conditions.
UHD has active networks including Women’s, BAME, Pride, EU, Pro Ability, and Armed Forces. We support Disability Confident and Armed Forces Covenant interview schemes.
