Priory Group is the UK’S leading independent provider of mental health care and education services. We have an outstanding reputation both for the service we deliver and for the investment we make in our people and in our environment

The male psychiatric intensive care units at Priory Hospital Cheadle Royal provide a model of care that has been designed to meet the needs of individuals suffering from an acute phase of severe mental illness, which cannot be managed in an open setting. People that are admitted to our PICU service have typically exceeded, exhausted or failed to benefit from local resources and require a safe and secure environment to engage in a therapeutic programme.

It is desirable to display competency in one or more leisure/creative/practical activity and possess the ability to teach practical skills. Good communication skills, both written and verbal are required, as are good time management skills, and interested applicants must have the confidence and ability to work independently of a qualified Occupational Therapist.
