Active Care Group is a pioneering provider of complex care services, delivering pathways and better outcomes for people. We have a collaborative and holistic approach to care underpinned by proven clinical and therapeutic expertise.

We are excited to present an opportunity for a Specialist Occupational Therapist to join our supportive therapy team at the Blackheath Brain Injury Rehabilitation Unit in London.

You will be working as part of an enthusiastic, supportive, and highly experienced multidisciplinary team (neurology, neuropsychiatry, neuropsychology, nursing, physiotherapy, speech and language therapy, occupational therapy, social workers) where you will exercise complex clinical reasoning in regard to assessment, rehabilitation and discharge planning.

As part of an experienced and skilled Occupational Therapy team who will provide support and guidance, you will hold your own caseload of patients across both wards on the site.

The Blackheath Brain Injury Unit is a renowned centre for complex neurorehabilitation and is part of the Active Care Group Neuro Network (consisting of 25+ sites nationally) which has a focus on the use of clinical expertise, innovation, and technology to meet patients' expectations of their rehabilitation goals.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop, carry out, and generalise safe, innovative, evidence-based treatments, underpinned by the principles of neuroplasticity and motor re-learning.
  • Plan and prioritise a complex clinical caseload.
  • Assist the MDT in diagnosis, problem formulation and planning of rehabilitation programmes.
  • Function as a Key Worker/Named Therapist to ensure active coordination and management of the therapeutic programme to achieve the agreed rehabilitation goals.
  • Play a key role in planning safe discharges.
  • Prescribe and provide equipment for our patients during their rehabilitation journey.
  • Provide intervention as part of an MDT approach and be involved in MDT service developments.
  • Maintain records and clinical notes in line with company policy and RCOT guidelines.
  • Ensure effective and timely communication at all levels (with patients, families, the MDT and external agencies).
  • Contribute to the in-service education and training programme for the wider MDT.
  • Supervise junior staff including assistants and students.
  • Keep people safe from harm and protect their human rights.

We offer a competitive salary of £35,000 - £45,000 per annum, depending on experience, plus benefits including free lunch when on duty, 25 days annual leave, pension scheme, employee assistance programme, and more.
