We are recruiting for an OT Band 6 rotation within the acute services at Victoria Hospital and the HSCP in ICT at Whytemans Brae Hospital. The role involves working with the Acute Medical OT Team, the Integrated Community Team, and the Frailty Team within AU1, with rotations lasting 9 months each.

Key Responsibilities:

* Work with patients living with frailty and a range of conditions to develop specialist skills and deliver evidence-based care.
* Optimize occupational performance and support safe, timely hospital discharges.
* Manage your own caseload, participate in multi-agency collaborations, and engage in quality improvement activities.
* Opportunity to develop additional competencies in Physiotherapy and basic nursing skills.

Working Conditions:

* Engagement with weekend working; flexible work patterns supported.
* Hybrid undergraduate placements and selective home working for non-clinical tasks.
* Frailty Team rotation includes 12.5-hour shift patterns, including weekends.

We offer in-service training, regular appraisals, PDP meetings, leadership development, and support from peers and management. The role requires effective travel throughout Fife; the VHK is accessible from Lothian, Forth Valley, Dundee, and Perth, with car sharing options available.

For informal enquiries, contact Lorna Brocklesby, OT Manager, at 01592 643355 ext 21646.
