Cheltenham, United Kingdom Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and established multidisciplinary team.

The team is responsible for rehabilitation of stroke patients across Gloucestershire and consists of therapists, rehabilitation assistants, stroke co-ordinators and psychologists. This service is to enable patients to leave hospital at an earlier opportunity and therapy focuses on maximising independence and aiding adjustment to life after stroke.

The role involves working closely with specialist therapists (Speech Therapists, Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists) delivering an agreed rehabilitation and care programme to stroke patients within the community setting.

We are looking for confident, experienced and flexible individuals with a healthcare background or rehabilitation assistants who wish to expand and consolidate their rehabilitation skills and contribute to the stroke pathway.

Rehabilitation and care will be provided by post holders over a 7 day period, with occasional requirement to work up until 8pm, as well as weekends/bank holidays with a rota system in operation. Enhancements will be paid for weekends and bank holidays.

The team will provide a supportive working environment with personal development opportunities.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.

Our Staff Survey results showed people at our Trust feel they are engaged, part of a team and work for a compassionate and inclusive organisation.

Our overall scores were better than average in eight of nine themes and level in one - the best overall results for a community, mental health and learning disabilities Trust in the south west and first equal amongst all sector NHS providers within the region too.

Gloucestershire Health and Care is committed to embedding and providing personalised care through all of its services as part of our high-quality care strategy. The purpose of personalised care is to empower people to lead the lives they want to live. Personalised care starts with a conversation with people about what matters to them. It builds on what people can do, as well as addressing their health needs. Including new ways of working and delivering care, emphasising that we need to make effective use of the full range of our people’s skills and experience to deliver the best possible patient care. So we want to know What Matters to You and that you will share our values and join us on this very important journey.

The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
