NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles.
We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included.
This is a fulltime, permanent post of 37 hours per week, with a shift pattern of Monday to Friday.It is essential that the potholder is currently registered with the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC) and has a degree or equivalent in occupational therapy.The Adult Community Learning Disability teams within Glasgow City HSCP have an exciting opportunity for 1 full time Band 5 Occupational Therapists to join the service.
The posts will be allocated across the North West team, with occasion to work across the localities as service need indicates.Our Learning Disability change programme is reviewing and redesigning our services to ensure that people receive the right care at the right time and that we develop in line with national and local policy and are well placed to meet the needs of the learning disability population now and in the future.
Both our Strategy for the Future document and the Scottish Government Coming Home Report clearly guide our aspiration to provide a future service which focuses on providing good outcomes for people with a learning disability and to support people to live healthy, happy, independent lives within the community.
Occupational Therapy is key to achieving this vision and contributes to the overall multi-disciplinary approach by assessing people who have learning disabilities to ascertain the impact which their learning disability has on occupational performance.
The three main types of specialist strength focused interventions include functional skills / adaptation to support occupational performance, sensory processing and provision of specialist adaptations, equipment and environmental redesign.
You will manage a defined caseload and will carry out occupational therapy assessments, treatment and evaluation of these interventions to identify mental and physical barriers to an individual service user's level of function in daily life-skill activities.
You will work with the service user on an individual or group work basis to maintain or increase their level of function in these activities in order to maximise their level of independence within their living and community environment, and establish realistic and achievable occupational therapy goals and contribute to the overall multidisciplinary treatment approach By engaging in the professional occupational therapy supervision process with a senior occupational therapist, you will participate in the delivery of an evidenced based occupational therapy service.
You will be expected to participate in the clinical development framework within the service and professional training opportunities available and work as part of a multidisciplinary team, engaging in team tasks, team audit and research.Details on how to contact the Recruitment Service can be found within the Candidate Information Packs.

This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff.
This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours.
However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Recruiting Board.
