We are a friendly and dynamic team, that are committed to providing high quality care to the residents of North Dorset through integrated and collaborative ways of working in conjunction with our colleagues in Primary and Social Care sectors.

The Integrated Community Rehabilitation Team is a multi-disciplinary team offering therapy to a wide range of people within their home environments to prevent avoidable hospital admissions and facilitate earlier hospital discharge. It is important that you have an interest in rehabilitation or a caring role, perhaps some experience in both ward and community settings, as well as having good verbal, written and team working skills. You will need to be flexible in your approach and confident to work alone.

To assist in the provision of administrative support to the department / team.

Responsibilities will require you to work mainly under the close supervision of the clinicians within the team, but at times also to work autonomously. You will need to have the ability to drive a car as you will be required to visit patients in their own homes and other community settings.

In return for your enthusiasm and commitment, we can provide an opportunity for you to develop your clinical skills and experience in a supportive team, with regular supervision and appraisals. You will be required to achieve a certain competency level which we will give you support and training to help you reach. Opportunities for further training may be available through the Trusts Training Department.

This is a full time post. The post holder may be required to work flexibly to meet the needs of the service.
