Job summary
Are you a newly qualified, returning to practice or an experienced Occupational Therapist (OT) looking for an opportunity to develop yourskills across a variety of services? Then the Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust Band 5 rotation is for you.
There are eight rotation placements across a variety of areas within the Trust. Our placements offer opportunities to work with CMHT's with adults or older people who experience mental health problems and with Psypher, our first episode psychosis team, a new addition to our rotation this year. There are opportunities to work with people with learning disabilities in the CTLD; in secure services; in a mental health crisis home-based treatment team; in a mental health rehabilitation service (STaRS); and in our CAMHS Inpatient Unit (Inspire). Each of the placements offer the opportunity for learning and development and provide support for the successful candidate to practice of holistic occupational therapy skills across a range of settings and diagnosis.
The rotation has recently been successful in securing an across service rotation with CHCP and Hull City Council, therefore we are now able to offer the opportunity to support the development of OTs in both mental and physical health services.
Please see attached document for more details of each placement currently on offer.
Please note that we welcome applications from students nearing qualification or awaiting their HCPC registration. (Please declare this in your application).
Main duties of the job
This Rotation offers OT's the chance to consolidate their knowledge and develop both OT specific and generic skills that are transferable across teams and service user groups. We are therefore looking for people who will take the opportunities afforded by this, and who can foster effective working relationships with professionals and with service users.
The post-holders will be expected to assess and deliver evidence-based OT interventions, to facilitate wellbeing and optimise independent functioning in self-care, productivity and leisure activities, from an occupational perspective.
Interventions can take place in home environments, community settings and in-patient units, with flexibility of working required to meet service user needs.
There may be an expectation to be involved in projects or service developments happening within teams allowing the post-holder to develop their skills within this area.
All Occupational Therapists have access to supervision, CPD networks and the Rotational OT's can participate in a monthly Band 5 OT Development Group.
The Trust has an award wining multi-disiplinary Preceptorship programme, which dovetails well with more specific OT preceptorship requirements. Training is supported, together with leadership development programmes. We are committed to undergraduate student education, with occupational therapists encouraged after a reasonable period, to undertake the SLiP training and facilitate student placements
