We are committed to delivering high quality rehabilitation for our patients and will support the physiotherapy assistant to develop the knowledge and skills required to carry out their role. You can expect an induction to the role and ongoing learning and training opportunities in a supportive environment to help you to feel confident in your role.

The Trust comprises four hospitals - the John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill Hospital and Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Headington and the Horton General Hospital in Banbury.

Our values, standards and behaviours define the quality of clinical care we offer and the professional relationships we make with our patients, colleagues and the wider community. We call this Delivering Compassionate Excellence and its focus is on our values of compassion, respect, learning, delivery, improvement and excellence. These values put patients at the heart of what we do and underpin the quality healthcare we would like for ourselves or a member of our family.
