Physiotherapy Lead

Liverpool, United Kingdom Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Band 7 Physiotherapy Team Lead (Acute Intervention) - Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - Royal Liverpool Hospital site - Permanent/Full Time (37.5 hours)

Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LUHFT) has teams of experienced and highly skilled AHP staff working in a wide range of acute specialty areas. They are an integral part of the MDT, providing for the acute therapy needs of patients and supporting their safe early transition out of the acute Trust.

An exciting and challenging opportunity has arisen for an experienced and enthusiastic Physiotherapist to join our Acute Medicine Therapy Team based at the Royal Liverpool Hospital. Specialities include Gerontology, Infectious Diseases, Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Clinical Pharmacology, Nephrology and Renal Transplant, Diabetic Medicine, Haematology and Palliative Care. In these settings, physiotherapists have a key role in high level clinical reasoning, risk identification and problem solving to enable patients to maintain their independence and to work collaboratively with other members of the MDT to support patient discharge at the earliest safe opportunity.

We wish to recruit a highly skilled clinician who has a clear understanding of the developing role of the physiotherapist in the acute setting; delivering innovative, responsive services to meet both the needs of patients and the organisation. This role requires excellent communication skills and the ability to work as an effective member of the wider team as well as with other external agencies. The post holder will have significant experience working with adults with complex presentations, particularly those with multiple co-morbidities.

This role demands extensive post graduate knowledge and experience, therefore the post holder must be highly competent in the triage, assessment and management of a wide range of acute medical conditions and presentations.

Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created on 1 October 2019 following the merger of two adult acute Trusts, Aintree University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The merger provides an opportunity to reconfigure services in a way that provides the best healthcare services to the city and improves the quality of care and health outcomes that patients experience.

The Trust runs Aintree University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital, Liverpool University Dental Hospital and the Royal Liverpool University Hospital.

It serves a core population of around 630,000 people across Merseyside as well as providing a range of highly specialist services to a catchment area of more than two million people in the North West region and beyond.
