Assistant Practitioner Community Therapy

2 weeks ago


Grimsby, United Kingdom Northern Lincolnshire & Goole NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for an experienced Therapy Assistant or existing Assistant Practitioner to take up this role within the Community Therapy Team in North East Lincolnshire.

This team sees a range of patients within the community, in their own homes, and at a range of care facilities including a drop in assessment clinic to trial equipment and assistive devices to aid independence. Your role will involve assessment to provide appropriate intervention for these individuals to aid maintenance of safe independent function in their homes.

Individuals can present to the service with a range of different presentations and diagnoses and interventions could include a range of specific equipment, and some rehabilitation plans with exercise and functional practice to improve mobility, balance, range of motion, strength and thereby impact on their daily routines, and potential to consider major adaptations where required.

Many individuals will be seen via appointment or drop in presentation to our assessment clinic facility but there will also be a need to follow up at the individuals home to assess further and provide identified equipment, adaptations or intervention.

The focus of the role is to assess and support individuals to facilitate safety and function in their home environment. Interventions can therefore include a range of assessments and rehabilitation activities, assistive equipment, assessment for equipment, advice and information sharing and assessment for major adaptations.

Excellent communication skills are required to ensure a collaborative approach to patient care from the multidisciplinary team involved.

The purpose of the post is to provide a high standard of therapy service working under the supervision of registered Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists.

We’re a large organisation with three hospitals located in Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Goole. We also provide community services in North Lincolnshire. Our 6,500 members of staff care for and support a population of more than 400,000 people.

We encourage all our staff to innovate and adopt ‘best practice’ so we can deliver excellent care to our patients. We ask staff to live our values; kindness, courage and respect.

We are committed to recruiting the best people to work with us. You could be one of them.

In line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Recruitment & Workforce team will use and hold your personal data for the intended purpose and in line with the Recruitment & Workforce Privacy Statement.

“We are committed to safeguarding the welfare of children/vulnerable adults and expect the same commitment from all staff and volunteers”.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a fair and supportive working environment and culture, where contributions are fully recognised and valued by all and staff feel empowered to carry out their duties to the best of their abilities. As employers we are committed to promoting and protecting the physical and mental health and well-being of all our staff.
