Adult Speech & Language therapist; Community, Sutton Health & Care, South West London. (Band 6)

The Speech & language therapy (SLT) team work across the Community Neuro & Adult SLT service. Giving staff the opportunity to work as part of a Community MDT who truly support each other & work together towards our vision of 'Investing in our patient community, empowering them to live well'.

To achieve this we work holistically, towards patient led goals, providing rehabilitation & intervention to maximise our patient's potential. This requires us to be patient centred & specialists within our field. Using evidence-based practice & investing in our staff, so they have the knowledge, skills & training to provide this. We provide intervention based on clinical need, utilising each other’s expertise & our rehabilitation assistants to maximise our intervention.

The team works with adult patients with acquired communication & swallowing difficulties, so being trained in dysphagia assessment & management is a vital aspect of this role, as is experience in rehabilitation. Visits take place in patients’ homes, care homes & clinics, so staff need to be able to travel around the borough & work autonomously. Many of the team work part time/ flexibly; there is some degree of remote working. As a team we also feel it is important that we come together regularly for clinical support/supervision, development, communication etc.
**Interview Date**: TBC

The Sutton Community Neuro therapy & Adult Speech & Language therapy service is a Multi disciplinary team offering specialist, comprehensive assessment & intervention. We work with adults in the Sutton area of South West London who have Neurological conditions &/or those with acquired communication, speech, eating, drinking and swallowing difficulties.

The service has various pathways which enable us to deliver intervention to meet our patients’ needs. Community Neuro provides intervention to Stroke survivors (including an Stroke Supported Discharge response) and other complex Neuro conditions, such as PD, MS and MND.

The needs of our patients vary widely & our services offer rehabilitation, enablement & disability management interventions dependant on the patients’ needs & goals.

We offer specialised multi-disciplinary therapy assessment & intervention to patients in order to promote quality of life & independence, by preventing inappropriate hospital stays, maximising rehabilitation, recovery, and self-management

Adult Community Speech and Language Therapy (ACSLT) provides adults with acquired communication, speech, eating, drinking and swallowing difficulties, assessment & intervention to educate, train, rehab, enable &/or manage their condition alongside their carers & other professionals.

Therapists are expected to work flexibility across the pathways.

Sutton Health and Care is an innovative partnership of providers working across Sutton (GP Federation; Local Authority; Mental Health Trust and Acute Trust) to provide integrated services for the local community. As partners we have the exciting opportunity to put the shared vision for how health and care can be delivered into reality through the implementation of a service model for the provision of community services (adult and children) that truly integrates health and care, physical and mental health and primary and acute care.

We are committed to working with each other and commissioners to co-create a model which when implemented will transform the experience of the people who use services in Sutton and fit the vision of the Sutton Health and Care Plan and the national NHS Long Term Plan.

We firmly believe that the partnership will drive transformational change to the benefit of patients and the local health and care system, getting the system to deliver better person-centered outcomes and financial sustainability.
