Our team works with patients in the community to support them at home with their chronic respiratory conditions, as well as in their pulmonary rehabilitation rehab journey.
For me, one of the most rewarding parts of the job is being able to support patients in their own home because it allows you to develop closer therapeutic relationships and create a unique bond with your patients. In our team we have Specialist Nurses, Physiotherapists and Respiratory support workers, and we work closely with the wider Multidisciplinary Team.
We are looking for a qualified and registered Physiotherapist, but our goal is to find someone with passion and interest in respiratory conditions and supporting people in their own homes. Therefore, we are happy to consider candidates without community and/or respiratory training.
