This is a truly exciting time to join the Lincolnshire Stroke Service (LSS) as we have an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, ambitious, and forward-thinking Physiotherapist to work if interested across acute and community settings. We are seeking a Physiotherapist with demonstrable experience within the Neurological field, willingness to learn and passion for improving the lives of people who have recently had a stroke. This is a rare opportunity to learn and develop from specialists within an acute hospital and community team.
LSS has a seamless pathway from an acute inpatient setting to community delivery and both services work collaboratively across the patient pathway. The acute element of stroke delivery has been centralised on a single site (Lincoln County Hospital, LCH) whilst the community arm of the pathway is delivered countywide with four bases.
The post will be hosted by Lincolnshire Community Health Services (LCHS)so the ability to travel is therefore essential. The potential rotations between other neuro services can be discussed further at interview and we would welcome applications from candidates based across Lincolnshire. This post would include being part of the therapy weekend cover rota.
This post will require a full driving licence and access to a vehicle to travel.
LSS prides itself on delivering the highest quality of care to patients in the right setting, at the right time, by the right clinician. You will play a key role in delivering patient-centred rehabilitation and be afforded opportunities to work with patients at different stages of their stroke recovery. You will be a core member of the wider multi-disciplinary team which include consultants, nurses, clinical psychologist, specialist physiotherapists, speech and language therapists and occupational therapists, assistant practitioners and rehabilitation assistants.
You will work as an autonomous practitioner, undertaking specialist assessment and treatment which is evidence-based, and delivering this efficiently and effectively with regards to clinical priorities and the use of time. You will agree individual rehabilitation programmes based on patient-led outcomes, utilising both your skills and that of the wider multi-disciplinary team to achieve maximum potential.
This role also affords the opportunity to assist the Physiotherapy Leads / Team Leads to develop and maintain a service structure that delivers best practice, assist in the development of training, guidelines and innovations which may benefit the service. As a valued member of the team, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills both clinically and from a leadership perspective benefitting from expertise within both the acute and community teams.
Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust is in the top 25 per cent of all community trusts for overall staff engagement in the 2021 NHS National Staff Survey.
At LCHS, we know diversity fosters creativity and innovation. We are committed to equality of opportunity, to being fair and inclusive, and to being a place where all belong. We therefore particularly encourage applications from candidates who are likely to be underrepresented in LCHS’ workforce.
LCHS recognises the increasing demand for more flexibility in working practices in order to accommodate the personal goals and commitments that employees experience at different stages during their working lives. Flexible working opportunities such as part-time working, compressed hours, job shares, and hybrid working models can help staff to balance their personal and work commitments. Arrangements can be put in place if it can be shown that the needs of the individual can be balanced with those of the service and the impact on other team members, enabling the Trust to recruit and retain skilled staff, raise staff morale, reduce absenteeism and respond to changing service needs more effectively.
We are an ambassador of a learning culture that will support the right individual to progress in their chosen career through an ‘earn while you learn’ apprenticeship programme.
