Derby, United Kingdom University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Ward 312 is a Stroke Rehabilitation Unit at the Royal Derby Hospital, it is a busy but hugely rewarding place to work. We are looking for someone to join our highly dedicated, patient centred team to assist in caring for patients post stroke with deficits such as cognitive, mood and physical impairment to ensure they receive a positive hospital experience that supports their recovery in a stimulating and social environment.

Cognitive stimulation and social interaction will be encouraged through the provision of this role to support patients to maintain their independence, aid their recovery and promote discharge from hospital in an appropriate timeframe. This may be through the use of 1:1 sessions with patients or group working.

Key to the role is assisting with activities and stimulation and exercise groups in collaboration with other members of the multidisciplinary team (MDT) for the patients. This role will drive patient engagement at times where activity from the MDT is less, e.g. at the weekend.

The post holder will be a familiar and consistent person involved in the care of patients encouraging familiarity and trust. They will also be responsible, alongside the MDT, for ensuring support of families / carer's of patients, and ensuring that they are signposted to relevant support and information, such as the Stroke Association.
