An exciting opportunity has arisen for a B4 Occupational Therapy Assistant Practitioner to join the AHP team in Nairn Town and County Hospital.

As an assistant practitioner you will be a key member of the Allied Health team and work closely with fellow colleagues and the wider multidisciplinary team including reablement and care at home teams.

You will work both independently and jointly including performing tasks delegated by senior Occupational Therapists, to deliver rehabilitation to patients with ongoing care needs following injury or illness. You will be based both in the community and within a ward environment depending on whole team demand.

Key attributes for this post include enthusiasm, excellent communication and interpersonal skills, knowledge and an understanding of Occupational Therapy in rehabilitation. IT literacy is considered essential for this post.

Essential requirements for consideration for this role include a minimum of three years experience working as a band three Occupational Therapy Assistant, or a similar AHP role. You will understand the role of functional assessment leading into rehabilitation including the process of reablement and care at home interventions. You will have undertaken an HNC in OT support, working towards completion or be willing to undertake. You will also be a UK registered car driver and have access to a vehicle to allow for community care provisions.

Opportunities for personal development and full training and support for the role will be given.

In addition, the AHP department offers a rolling in service training programme which you will attend and you will also have access to Highland wide training opportunities.
