Band 6 Physiotherapist

1 week ago


Hinckley, United Kingdom Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust Full time

Job Overview

We have a great opportunity that has arisen for a full time Band 6 physiotherapist to provide Physiotherapy interventions to patients within our Home First and Community Therapy Service.

The service brings together an integrated health and social care offer delivered by community-based nursing, therapy and adult social care teams and will allow you to use your therapy skills to:

  • Support people to remain in their homes when they are having a health or social care crisis, rather than needing to go into hospital or a care home.
  • Help people get home from hospital quickly and provide them with rehabilitation and reablement to help restore their health, wellbeing and independence.
  • Deliver high quality core therapy reablement, rehabilitation and recovery to people within their own home.

This post requires a level of personal responsibility and we are looking for someone highly motivated, resilient and proactive with the ability to prioritise and manage their own allocated work, use their initiative and the ability to work on their own and as part of a team. You will demonstrate excellent communication and organisational skills and be able to adapt to a changing and pressurised environment.


Job Description Summary (Main duties and responsibilities)

  • To be responsible for own practice and accountable for all aspects of the physiotherapy assessment and treatment (information gathering, assessment, treatment planning, intervention, evaluation and discharge planning) as appropriate working with a person centred approach.
  • To communicate and work collaboratively with patients, families/carers, other disciplines and other agencies to ensure good professional working relationships are maintained.
  • To have clinical responsibility for a designated caseload of patients and to organise this effectively with regard to clinical priorities and in line with the Trusts waiting/response times and service priorities.
  • To take responsibility for the clinical and management supervision of other Physiotherapy staff, Band 5 or unregistered staff as appropriately agreed with Team/Clinical/Operational Lead.
  • To contribute to and take a lead in audit, quality improvement, research and development and recommendations on clinical practice.
  • Demonstrate understanding of clinical governance and risk management and participate in initiatives as appropriate with support from Team/Clinical/Operational Lead.
  • To maintain high standards of clinical record keeping, report writing including electronic data and recording e.g. ESR, and provide statistical returns as requested.

We may close the advert early, if we receive a sufficient number of applicants, so please apply as soon as possible.
