London, United Kingdom Active Care Group Full time

**Come and join the UK’s 4**th** largest independent provider in neuro and mental healthcare. We proudly employ over 4000+ people - no matter what your experience, we have jobs for everyone.**

**We are looking for a Locum Consultant in General Internal Medicine / Neurology / Geriatric Medicine / Rehabilitation Medicine** to join the team at the Blackheath Brain Injury Rehabilitation Centre. This role is part time - three days a week, with an additional day available at the soon to be opened Chislehurst Brain Injury Rehabilitation Unit.**

The Blackheath Brain Injury Rehabilitation Centre has two dedicated units: the Thames Brain Injury Rehabilitation Unit (21 beds), is an NHSE-funded Level 1C neuro-behavioural unit for patients with complex cognitive and/or behavioural rehabilitation needs; the Heathside Neuro-disability Unit (18 beds), is an NHSE-funded Level 2A unit for patients requiring complex physical neuro-rehabilitation.

The site is part of the wider Active Care Group Neuro Network (consisting of 25+ sites) nationally and collaborates with local NHS services (such as The Lishman Unit, South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust). We focus on the use of clinical expertise, innovation and technology to meet patient’s expectations of rehabilitation goals.

There are two wards in our Blackheath site: Thames Brain Injury Rehabilitation Unit and Heathside Unit.

Across the two wards we provide assessment, rehabilitation, support and care.

**Level 1 Regional Specialist Rehabilitation**

This regionally renowned service is for people with complex cognitive and /or behavioural problems following a brain injury or as a result of a neurological condition. They have complex nursing and therapy needs requiring input from a highly specialist Inter-Disciplinary Team, and treatment facilities unlikely to be available locally.

Patients are usually in the very early stages of recovery from their brain injury and are usually admitted from an acute hospital once they are medically stable.

**Level 2 Specialist Rehabilitation**

This service is suitable for people who require specialist inpatient rehabilitation and have ongoing physical therapy needs.

Our team work closely together to ensure that every team member is working towards the same practical, realistic goals and that all therapies are focused on the areas that will enable patients to achieve those clearly defined and agreed goals.

Our team includes qualified nurses (RMN and RGNs), Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists, Clinical Psychologists, Social Workers and sessional visits from a Consultant in Rehabilitation Medicine and a weekly GP ward round. The clinical team are fully supported by rehabilitation assistants and technicians, administrators, housekeeping and catering staff and a maintenance team.

Conditions we support, but are not limited to:

- Acquired Brain Injury
- Anoxic Brain Injury
- Brain Tumour
- Complex Stroke
- Traumatic Brain Injury
- Inflammatory and infective conditions

The centre is located at walking distance from central Greenwich with easy access to a vibrant community and local amenities, and good transport links. The service is committed to the delivery of high-quality care and there are opportunities for involvement in clinical research.

**About Active Care Group**

We have a collaborative and holistic approach to care and work effectively in partnership with our stakeholders, to deliver high quality integrated health and care services. We have over 30 years of specialist knowledge and experience in managing complex conditions including ventilation and respiratory, spinal injury, brain injury, epilepsy, neurological conditions, mental health conditions and learning disabilities.

We have over 4000 staff, caring for over 2000 clients in over 60 locations.

**Our Group Behaviours**

Our Group Behaviours are at the heart of everything we do. They not only support the delivery of our care, our strategy and our culture but they are a guide to the behaviours that we value as an organisation, encourage, recognise and reward. By choosing key behaviours instead of values, we can show our colleagues, patients, residents and clients what is important to us by what we say (and how we say it), what we do and how we treat others. Unlike values, behaviours are something we can all easily demonstrate, whatever our role in the organisation.

**Key Responsibilities**

**CLINICAL**
- Leading the multidisciplinary team that undertakes assessments for admissions to the service within our partner acute hospitals
- Provide input for Spasticity and Bowel / Bladder Management.
- Leading the multidisciplinary team in the care and treatment of our patients, including weekly ward round review
- Attend family meetings, case review meetings and discharge planning meetings as required
- Practise evid
