The role sits alongside the Community SLT team, with their own team of Speech and Language Therapists and there will be the opportunity for working across the community with non-neuro caseloads.

We have access to video-fluoroscopy at the local acute care hospital, and independently carry out instrumental assessments as needed for our clients. Experience working independently in assessing and treating people with dysphagia and those with complex neurological issues is essential for this role.

Our team strives to empower people to live independently and to improve their quality of life. Our service actively encourages ongoing professional development. We offer regular clinical supervision and access to relevant courses to support you in developing your specialist interest.

You will be providing specialist assessment, rehabilitation and advice for individuals with swallowing and communication difficulties.

Our multidisciplinary teams look after people of all ages and we work in close partnership with other parts of the NHS, local councils and the voluntary sector and through our new provider collaboratives. Our 4,300 members of staff work in many different settings including hospitals, clinics, prisons, secure hospitals, children’s centres, schools and people’s homes.

We have over 125 sites in a variety of locations in the South of England. In London we operate within the Boroughs of Bexley, Bromley Greenwich and into Kent. We manage hospital sites including Queen Mary’s Hospital, Sidcup and Memorial Hospital, Woolwich, as well as the Bracton Centre, our medium secure unit for people with mental health needs. We are the largest NHS provider of prison health services providing healthcare to prisons within Devon, Dorset, Bristol, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, Kent and South London. We are proud of the care we provide and our people.

Our purpose is to improve lives by providing the best possible care to our patients and their families. This is strengthened by our new values:
