Job summary
We are currently looking for a Band 6 Occupational Therapist to join the team in Dartford, Gravesend, and Swanley CMHT.
Community mental health services are going through a national restructuring, putting a new emphasis on delivering interventions, of which Occupational Therapy is identified as key to service provision. We have an established team of OTs that we are looking to expand as we provide more group and individual interventions to our service users.
The role would include completing OT assessments and interventions. The intervention may be completed by the successful candidate, or by OT apprentices, support workers, or junior team members under supervision.
We are also increasing our offer of group work looking at supporting complex service users to develop skills for daily living as well, as others to develop strategies to manage their mental health recovery.
Occupational Therapy is valued as a core part of the MDT and the post holder will be working in a team with a variety of professionals. There is an opportunity to develop skills in Occupational Therapy as well as wider team functions.
The right candidate should be able to support junior team members and take a lead in the management of the OT work across the team with the other band's 6 colleagues and the area AHP lead.
This post would suit an experienced band 6 looking to develop new skills, but also support can be given to the right candidate to develop from a band 5 post into this position.
Main duties of the job
Utilizing core Occupational Therapy (OT) skills to deliver OT interventions and manage a caseload of those requiring OT within mental health services.
Work closely with OT colleagues and the MDT to deliver comprehensive support to patients in Mental Health Together and Mental Health Together + team.
Clinical care pathways focus on initial interventions for people referred to services, interventions for people with personality disorders, and interventions for people with enduring conditions. This is supported by our Allied Health Professions Strategy focused on enabling independence, transforming transitions, and influencing health and well-being. Care pathways will be delivered by various professionals. Occupational therapists play a key part in this process. Interventions delivered include a range of OT groups and individual OT assessment and treatment. We have developed groups targeting techniques in managing emotions, developing life skills, and improving ADLs as well as supporting people to reflect on their recovery and set goals to work towards future aspirations. There will be a focus on OTs working with support workers to facilitate transitions to primary care.
Deliver focussed interventions to individuals with personality disorders with support from colleagues in psychology.
There will be an opportunity to develop skills in leadership and an expectation that the post holder supports the development and supervision of junior staff.
