Saint Leonards, United Kingdom Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

East Dorset ICRT are looking for Band 3 Community Rehabilitation Assistants to work within the Multidisciplinary team, based at St Leonards Community Hospital, MDT working as a team to provide intermediate care and rehabilitation to the adult population of the East Dorset Locality.

We are a friendly and dynamic team, that are committed to providing high quality Rehabilitation and care to the residents of East Dorset through integrated and collaborative ways of working in conjunction with our colleagues in the Primary and Social Care sectors.

The post will involve treatment of patients in their own homes to avoid hospital admission and enable them to achieve as much strength, confidence, function, and independence as possible following their illness/surgery. We also support patients who wish to remain at home who are requiring End of Life Care.

Employment in this post requires an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, which the Trust will cover the cost of. Applicants who subscribe to the DBS update service are able to present a valid DBS certificate instead of requiring a new check.

Dorset Healthcare Trust is committed to improving career development and training opportunities, so if you are interested in progressing your employment towards an Apprenticeship in Nursing, Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy then we are here to support you, please apply.

The Integrated Community Rehabilitation Team is a multi-disciplinary team offering therapy to a wide range of people within their home environments to prevent avoidable hospital admissions and facilitate earlier hospital discharge as well as in-reaching onto the wards. It is essential that you have experience of rehabilitation or a caring role, preferably in both ward and community settings, as well as having good verbal, written and team working skills. You will need to be flexible in your approach and confident to work alone. Basic IT skills and NVQ level 2/3 would be advantageous.

Responsibilities will require you to work mainly under the close supervision of the clinicians within the team, but at times also to work autonomously. You will need to have the ability to drive a car as you will be required to visit patients in their own homes and other community settings.

In return for your enthusiasm and commitment, we can provide an opportunity for you to develop your clinical skills and experience in a supportive team, with regular supervision and appraisals. You will be required to achieve a certain competency level which we will give you support and training to help you reach. Opportunities for further training may be available through the Trusts Training Department.

May work alone within scope of role and have their own caseload of service users with non-complex needs that have been previously seen or triaged by a registered member of staff.

At Dorset HealthCare we’re on a mission to empower people to make the most of their lives through our outstanding, joined-up healthcare services. We’re a dynamic, forward-looking Trust, running 12 community hospitals, specialist inpatient facilities and a wide range of integrated community and mental health services for a population of almost 800,000 people.

We do things differently here - it’s one of the reasons the CQC rated us ‘outstanding’ in 2019. It’s also why 95% of patients across our services say they have a good or very good experience of our services and 89% of staff feel they can really make a difference. Whether you’re looking to work with us in one of our bustling market towns, vibrant urban locations, thriving seaside spots, or among the rolling hills of Dorset, there are lots of ways you can make a difference in our communities.

Our 7,000-strong workforce is at the heart of what we do and our success is a testament to our brilliant people. We're all about building a workplace for the future, we believe in equal opportunities and we celebrate diversity. We’re an inclusive workplace, where everyone is welcome, everyone can be authentic, and we are all encouraged to be the best version of ourselves.

Working with us you’ll be part of a strong team, challenge yourself, build a career, and teach us what we don’t know. And you’ll be working towards our vision to be better every day through excellence, compassion and expertise in all we do.
