**Therapy Services Philosophy of Care**:
- To be a flexible and needs-led service where patients are provided with a wide range of opportunities and experiences to develop and maintain their skills, promoting lifelong learning and physical and mental well-being.

To facilitate meaningful occupation in order to maximise the individual’s quality of life and recovery whilst minimising potential risks.

To enable integration into the community when appropriate and promote social inclusion.

To provide an inclusive service where the individuality of each patient is respected, giving consideration to ethnic origin, age, background, religion, sexual orientation or personal beliefs.

To deliver individual interventions identified and planned by the Occupational Therapist as part of the patient’s treatment plan.

To co-facilitate Occupational Therapy led treatment groups

To provide sessions for patients in ICU, Long Term Segregation and seclusion.

To contribute to the daily functioning of the designated area of work, including sharps checks and room searches.

To work on the wards when required for example to cover staff support or low staffing numbers.

Please note that this post may not meet the pay and skill level required for a Skilled worker visa

Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of Agenda for Change Band 3. This salary is below the minimum salary required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa.
