Independence is the key to well-being. Reablement requires a multidisciplinary workforce to enable improvement in patient functioning and achievement of goals. You will be working alongside therapists, therapy assistants and senior enablers. Enablers support and motivate patients to regain their independence by following individualised service users goal plans. Involving service users to ensure they can regain their independence and achieve their goals. In other words, it’s helping people ‘to do’ rather than ‘doing’ to or for people.

- We encourage staff to get involved in exploring new ways of working and service development.
- We’ll provide well established, in-service training, one to one supervision, and appraisals with regular support.
- You’ll be able to develop your skills in a friendly and supportive team.

Would you like to work flexibly? In the NHS, we are reminded every day of how important work life balance is. As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us, for our patients and for you.
