    Description

    An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our Children and Young People's Therapy Team in Ashford.

    Situated in Kent, the Garden of England, Ashford has easy access to London and is close to the university city of Canterbury, which is vibrant and lively with a theatre, bars and restaurants as well as many historic sites. Folkestone and Dover are close by, giving easy access to Europe via the Channel Tunnel, Dover ferry port and the Eurostar.

    Main duties of the job We encourage an evidenced based, outcome focused approach to meeting the needs of our service users. We provide assessment and intervention based on a child's individual need regardless of their age (0-19 years).

    During the Pandemic we have worked flexibly to meet the needs of our children and young people whilst keeping staff safe. Our modernised IT offer has allowed us to develop flexible working between office and home. About us We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 800,000 people.

    Our vision is 'great healthcare from great people'. Everything we do is guided by our values: 'People feel cared for, safe, respected and confident that we are making a difference'.

    We have a new way of working at East Kent Hospitals, called 'We care'. It's about empowering frontline staff to lead improvements day-to-day. We're looking for compassionate people to be part of our improvement journey for the patients, families and carers we care for every day.

    Applications for this role should be written by the applicant. If artificial intelligence (AI) programmes are used then the application may be rejected due to this document being an important part of the assessment process. This does not prevent applicants seeking appropriate support with applications should they need to for the purposes of any declared disability.
