About Us

Cygnet Health Care was established in 1988 as an independent provider of health and social care services in England, Scotland and Wales.


Your Role

Service Line: Learning Disability Other (ASD Residential)


Summary of the site

Gledholt Mews and Coach House, 32 Greenhead Road, Gledholt, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. HD1 4EZ


We want to recruit an exceptional Band 7, Head Occupational Therapist. If you have a history of demonstrating clinical expertise and you have a passion for developing others, this could be an opportunity for your next challenge.


Gledholt Mews and Coach House is our enhanced community residential service for adults with mental health needs or learning disabilities, who may have behaviours that challenge and associated complex needs.


Gledholt is operationally a nurse-led service with both service manager and head of care being qualified nurses. We have an in-house multi-disciplinary team (MDT) who support the residents in our care throughout their journey with us. The team consists of a consultant psychologist, psychology assistant, occupational therapist, occupational therapy assistant, activity co-ordinators, nurses and speech and language therapist. We are able to meet the changing needs of our residents as they progress through their care pathway, while ensuring their safety is maintained and their independence supported.


We have a unique care plan pathway called the Visual Discharge Plan (VDP). This approach involves a collaborative process between the individual, their families, the MDT and staff team. It ensures the person is at the heart of their care and takes into account what’s important to them, whilst balancing this with the clinical need. This puts the resident at the heart of their care and also ensures that discharge planning commences at the point of admission.


Gledholt is divided into two living areas, the main house and the coach house. The main house, which is split across three floors, offers seven en-suite bedrooms, communal lounges and a kitchen on each floor to enable the residents to shop for and prepare their own meals. The coach house is a two bedroom unit giving the individuals we support the option to spend time in their own space or in the main house. Externally there are beautiful gardens to the front and rear of the building with raised flower beds, outdoor seating and plenty of space for sports, games and parties.


Occupational Therapy Directorate

Under the leadership of our occupational therapy directors we support over 150 Occupational Therapists and over 300 OT support staff. Working together as a large team we provide support to each other across the group, with the opportunity to be part of specialist interest groups & become involved in service development.


Every service line has a clinical lead occupational therapist to lead and develop evidence based practice and agreed occupational therapy pathway.

We ensure our occupational therapy team members have a voice through participating in service model development, utilising the expertise and support of our clinical lead occupational therapists.


5 reasons why you should make an application today…

  1. We care about people in our services
  2. Expert clinical supervision with an occupational therapist
