We are seeking a motivated, forward-thinking permanent full-time Band 6 speech and language therapist with a strong interest in neuro-rehabilitation to join us at one of the UK's leading rehabilitation units. The Regional Hyperacute Rehabilitation Unit (RHRU) is a tertiary service which caters for young adults with severe complex neurological disability, accepting referrals from all of the South East. It is a highly specialised, level one rehabilitation service combining inpatient services (24 beds) with outreach support to community rehabilitation teams and other professionals across the network. A range of patients are treated at the RHRU, from people requiring high level cognitive and vocational rehabilitation, to people who are in a prolonged disorder of consciousness (PDoC) or who are receiving neuropalliative care.

The RHRU is a centre of research and learning and the successful candidate will be able to participate in research and improvement activities, in-house and external training, regular supervision and competency development, and peer support networks.

There are opportunities to further develop skills in complex dysphagia, augmentative/alternative communication, tracheostomy management, prolonged disorders of consciousness, FEES, videofluroscopy and specialist neuropalliative care under the guidance of expert clinicians. The RHRU SLT team is supported by the larger SLT department at Northwick Park, contributing to Trust-wide initiatives and support offers, and contributing to the operation of the hospital's videofluroscopy clinic.

About us

London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust (LNWH) cares for the people of Brent, Ealing, Harrow and beyond.
