We are looking for an experienced Therapy Assistant or existing Assistant Practitioner to take up this role within the Community Therapy Team in North Lincolnshire.

This team sees a range of patients within the community, in their own homes, and residential settings. Your role will involve assessment to provide appropriate intervention for these individuals to aid maintenance of safe independent function in their homes and provide assessment for adaptations where required, following local specific criteria.

Individuals can present to the service with a range of different presentations and diagnoses and interventions could include a range of specific equipment, and assessment for major adaptation via the disabled facilities grant process.

If the successful applicant does not meet all essential requirements for the role a developmental opportunity may be offered. This would be offered at band 3 until both academic and clinical criteria is met.

The focus of the role is to assess and support individuals to facilitate safety and function in their home environment. Interventions can therefore include a range of assessments and rehabilitation activities, assistive equipment, assessment for equipment, advice and information sharing and assessment for major adaptations.

Excellent communication skills are required to ensure a collaborative approach to patient care from the multidisciplinary team involved.

The purpose of the post is to provide a high standard of therapy service working under the supervision of registered Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists.
