**Job overview**:
**Health Play Specialist
- Band 4**

Would you like to work in a local district hospital which is expanding its services over the next few years? Are you thinking of returning to practice as a HPS? Or considering a move into Health Play Specialism and would like the opportunity to start here and build on the Play service that is developing. Are you already newly qualified and looking for experience or still studying and wanting a step in the door to working within the NHS. If so, then this post is for you.

**Main duties of the job**:
You will be working to organise play activities to help children prepare for clinical procedures and to work through their concerns and worries through a range of techniques suitable.

The work that you will be doing will be supported by a combination of evidence based practice and theoretical knowledge which will enable you to be able to plan, implement, review and evaluate therapeutic play programmes that support children (from birth) and young people emotionally and developmentally.

You will also be providing support to parents, carers and the wider family, including siblings, and will offer advice on how they can use play to help their children make sense of what's happening to them.

Thank you for showing an interest in working with us at Epsom and St Helier - a family of more than 7,000 colleagues.

We are truly an integrated health and care Trust.

So, as well as great hospital care, together we offer an increasing range of services. These include adult community health, sexual health and children's therapies. Many of these community services are run by the partnerships we host, Surrey Downs Health and Care and Sutton Health and Care.
