As well as hands on rehabilitation, the support worker assists the team with administrative tasks. Being computer literate with a willingness to learn the use of a range of hospital ICT systems would also be important in this role.
We are looking for someone who has previous experience of working in a rehabilitation or care setting, who is enthusiastic, compassionate and committed to delivering outstanding patient care.

You will be supported to achieve this through an in service training programme and joint clinical work to gain competencies to work across both therapies.
In addition to the points below, please familiarise yourself with the full job description and person specification documents attached to this advert.
You will work alongside the occupational therapist to help patients improve their ability to carry out a wide range of activities of daily living (ADL). You will work alongside the physiotherapist to help patients to improve their ability to move and to balance and to walk where this is possible. The therapy support worker will implement rehabilitation plans designed for each patient according to their needs. You will work alongside the multi-disciplinary team in the delivery of rehabilitation for patients, as well as delegated admin duties.
The successful applicant will receive a comprehensive induction and regular supervision within supportive and caring teams, as well as being supported to learn and continuously develop through in-service training. You will actively participate in service improvement, training, supervision and yearly appraisal to continually develop your skills.
Therapies and Rehabilitation Services is one of the pathways within the Clinical Support Division at NUH. We are a diverse pathway of AHPs and support staff, employing over 600 staff who work together to deliver the high-quality care we aspire to.
Our HCPC registered AHP professionals comprise of physiotherapists, dietitians, occupational therapists, orthotists, prosthetists and speech and language therapists, and our other staff encompass professionals such as nurses, psychologists, administrative and clerical and support workers.
We have a Chief AHP to lead us on our strategic direction, and many of the pathway leadership team have pathway AHP backgrounds to support our staff. There are also Practice Development Therapists to support career development for all.
We’ve made a clear commitment to our patients and staff that We Listen, We Care. We will do all we can to ensure our patients get the best possible care we can give them.
