An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Occupational Therapist to join our Short Term Pathways Team. We are offering an excellent opportunity to join a friendly, dynamic and supportive team which promotes professional development.

The post would be based in the West Kent area and focusing on the work for discharge planning for clients under the Older Persons remit. This post is within a team that works collaboratively with health and other partnership agencies and focuses on promoting a persons independence.

We are looking for motivated, experienced professionals who are interested in working within the Short Term Pathways, and keen to work with Acute, Community Hospitals.

You should have a proven ability to facilitate proportional, functional, holistic assessments and be passionate about maximising independence, building confidence and achieving best outcomes for people by working in a person-centred way.
