Band 7 Clinical Lead Occupational Therapist

2 months ago


Carshalton, United Kingdom Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust Full time

Job summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a driven and motivated individual to join our small, specialist team of neuro-specialist therapists at St Helier Hospital. The post involves assessment and treatment of patients who require specific neurological therapies whilst on the St Helier Site.

Whilst the majority of our neurological patients within the trust receive input at Epsom Hospital, which is where our full stroke unit and team is based, some patients are not able to be transferred or require specialist medical input at St Helier. This generates a caseload of neuro patients at St Helier who are often complex and clinically provoking.

Main duties of the job

The post holder will be responsible for highly specialist, evidence based assessment, treatment, management and discharge planning for referred patients. Currently based at St. Helier Hospital, these are patients with neurological conditions requiring neuro-therapy intervention, across all wards. The postholder will work closely with a neuro-physiotherapist, to provide and facilitate appropriate holistic management, rehabilitation and advice to patients, staff and carers. They will work with other specialist staff including neurologist, continence advisor and TVN, multidisciplinary ward teams and discharge coordinators to identify and facilitate appropriate pathways and discharge plans from hospital, including ongoing referrals to specialist and / or local services where appropriate.

The postholder will be required to teach and support therapy staff, technicians and students as appropriate, and provide training, support and advice to other members of the MDT regarding appropriate patient management. They will be expected to participate in the development and monitoring of this service and service standards. They will also contribute to weekend rotas, and to other clinical areas in need as required.
