ESNEFT provides a Community Rehabilitation Service delivered by Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists working within Integrated Care Teams across North East Essex.

We are looking for an experienced, motivated Associate Practitioner to join our team and assist our therapists in the provision of this service. It is preferable that you have experience of working in a community, occupational therapy or physiotherapy setting.

It is essential that you are a car driver with access to a vehicle for work as you will be expected to travel across the Colchester area.

The key objectives for this post are to provide goal focused rehabilitation, supporting patients to become experts in their own care and to remain in their own homes; to provide the holistic assessment and treatment for this care group; to support the smooth running of the service including taking strength and balance exercise classes; and the management of equipment ordering and other administrative tasks for the team.

Clear clinical reasoning and good assessment skills are essential. You will be encouraged and supported to develop your clinical skills and be actively involved in service development.

One of the largest Trusts in East Anglia, East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) provide hospital and community health services to people living across a wide geographical area. We deliver care from two main hospitals in Colchester and Ipswich, six community hospitals and in patients’ own homes. You will be joining a team of almost 12,000 amazing colleagues providing care to approximately a million people.

Along with supporting you to achieve your career goals we offer a generous pension scheme, unsocial hours payments (if 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. We offer a range of flexible working opportunities.

Our philosophy is that Time Matters to everyone. Across the Trust, we concentrate on improving the things we do and removing those which do not work or cause time delays for our staff and patients.

To support our employees to achieve their career aspirations you may be eligible to obtain a qualification via an apprenticeship. All successful applicants will be required to undertake a skills review to facilitate this. For full details please see the attached Apprenticeship Handbook.

If you are passionate about patient care and want to develop your skills and knowledge then we are keen to hear from you.
