This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated Speech and Language Therapist who is keen to join our dynamic and friendly team providing Speech & Language Therapy services to children & young people in Gloucestershire.
The post offers an opportunity to work with early years and school aged children with a range of speech, language and communication needs. We work creatively with parents, settings and other professionals to provide appropriate intervention packages using a care aims framework.
The post holder will be responsible for assessing, treating, managing and prioritising a designated caseload of children with speech, language and communication difficulties in a community clinic setting.
They will provide advice to parents and other professionals in order to support the needs of children with speech, language and communication difficulties in line with the Care Aims approach including agreeing outcomes with key adults supporting the children on the caseload.
As a Band 5, the post holder will work under the close supervision of a clinical supervisor as well as be supported by their designated line manager:
- To independently assess, diagnose, plan and deliver an appropriate therapeutic service to children who have any type of speech and language / communication difficulty, working with the care aims framework.
- To analyse complex cases in order to inform decision making for case management, working within the care aims framework to design appropriate evidence based intervention to meet the needs of children aged 0 -19 referred to the SLT service.
- To provide advice, information, demonstration and training where necessary concerning specific strategies of intervention for the management of the child’s communication difficulties.
- To provide timely reports to parents / carers and other professionals to ensure that the child’s needs are appropriately identified.
- To contribute to Individual Education Plans, write EHC Plans to SEND Casework Officers in line with the SEND graduated pathway.
This post requires the post holder to be able to undertake all statutory and mandatory training and post holders must be able to undertake physical interventions. Fitness for physical intervention will be assessed by Occupational Health.
A valid UK driving licence plus the use of own transport for business purposes is essential. For qualifying staff the Trust has a Lease Car Scheme in place and also offers a popular Salary Sacrifice Car Scheme with our partner Tusker.
At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.
Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.
