An exciting opportunity has become available to join Epsom and St. Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust as a rotational Band 5 Occupational Therapist. Occupational Therapy plays a vital role in the acute care setting, ensuring patients experience a seamless and positive journey during their inpatient stay and beyond. Our Occupational Therapists collaborate closely with physiotherapy colleagues, the wider multidisciplinary team, and community partners.
Rotations currently include General Medicine (including cardiology and renal care), Orthopaedics/Surgery, Care of the Elderly, Acute Stroke, and Bed‑Based Rehabilitation. We actively work with community partners to extend rotation possibilities.
We are seeking a motivated and committed individual with the relevant knowledge and skills, and enthusiasm to deliver and support the wider development of the OT service. This may be your first role or you may have previous experience at this level. Candidates awaiting HCPC registration are welcome to apply.
Key responsibilities
* Deliver skilled occupational therapy services across acute care.
* Have clinical responsibility for assessment and treatment planning for people referred, and participate in developing and monitoring the service.
* Work closely with multidisciplinary teams and other professionals, particularly in relation to patient enablement, and assist in the development of good working relationships with statutory, voluntary and independent organisations and agencies.
* Actively participate in audit, service progression and role development.
