Speech & Language Therapist - Community Stroke
2 weeks ago
An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Community Stroke Services for a Speech & Language Therapist to join our team.
This role is suitable for both newly qualified therapists and for those who are looking to gain specialist experience working with Stroke.
The Community Stroke service provides Early Supported Discharge as well as support for people who have a new therapeutic need some time after their stroke. This is in line with the integrated model for stroke services providing a needs-based service.
The role will join our multidisciplinary team which consists of Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists as well as an experienced team of Associate and Assistant practitioners.
This role offers a great opportunity to work with adults with acquired communication and swallowing issues.
You will be working in a range of settings including patient's own homes, nursing and residential homes and with inpatients at our Community Hospitals.
You will be very well supported with regular peer and personal supervision. Wider support is also available from the Clinical lead and other senior staff and peers.
You will be encouraged to participate in our in-service training to further develop your knowledge. For new qualified staff, you would be supported through probation and to achieve your newly qualified practitioner competencies.
If you have not yet completed your dysphagia competencies we can look to support this.
We are ESNEFT and we provide hospital and community health services to almost one million people across east Suffolk and north Essex. Our dedicated staff deliver care from acute hospitals in Colchester and Ipswich, community hospitals, surgeries, community clinics and in patients' own homes.
We are one of the largest NHS organisations in England, employing more than 12,000 staff.
We pride ourselves on supporting our staff. We offer a wide range of training and development opportunities, as well as flexible working options.
Along with supporting you to achieve your career goals we offer a generous pension scheme, unsocial hours payments (where applicable), 27 days annual leave on commencement (pro rata) and access to a range of NHS discounts. Our Staff Health and Wellbeing programme offer a variety of services.
Our philosophy is that Time Matters to everyone. Across the Trust, we concentrate on improving the things we do and removing those which cause time delays for our staff and patients.
We are investing in our commitment to Time Matters with a partnership with leading electronic patient record (EPR) supplier Epic. This digital transformation will bring what's widely regarded as the world's best EPR system to ESNEFT, transforming life in hospital for staff and patients.
If you are passionate about patient care and want to develop your skills and knowledge, then we want to hear from you.
