The Paediatric Occupational Therapy service offers a high quality service to all eligible children aged from birth to school leaving age who live or attend school in Camden or who are registered with a Camden GP. The post holder will be allocated caseload depending on their experience and the needs of the service. This post is rotational which means that the post holder may need to rotate to a different post when the yearly review of rotations arise.
The post holder will need to demonstrate a high standard of clinical practise and previous experience as a Paediatric Occupational Therapist assessing the needs of complex children with DCD, ASD, developmental delay, physical disability and providing intervention in the classroom as well as working with their carers and acting as a highly skilled occupational therapy advisor in home and school environments.
This is an exciting opportunity for an Occupational Therapist that is looking to develop their career in a team that provides a wide range of experience within a highly skilled and supportive team of professionals, that offers various CPD opportunities.
The post involves working with school aged and pre-school children in a variety of settings including special and mainstream schools with a range of needs from mild to complex. Knowledge of the assessment and treatment of children with DCD, ASD and physical difficulties is essential. You will be working alongside a large and experienced team of Paediatric Occupational Therapists and there is scope for rotation within the Child Development Team and Social Care. You will visit schools and be responsible for assessment and intervention planning.
