Description
You can achieve more at St Andrew's Healthcare
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and compassionate Specialist Speech and Language Therapist to join our supportive SLT team at St Andrew's Healthcare covering the Neuropsychiatry inpatient service at St Andrew's Healthcare, Northampton.
We are committed to improving the quality and experience of patients in our care. We are looking for a Specialist SLT who is interested in developing their knowledge and skills working in complex neuro-disability and neuro-rehabilitation, and is passionate about advocating for patients with complex mental health and communications needs.
The SLT service at St Andrew's Healthcare is a centralised team, responsible for supporting some of the most vulnerable people with their communication and dysphagia needs. Our experienced SLT team provide triage, assessment and interventions for communication and dysphagia across a number of specialties including women's and men's Mental Health, Neuropsychiatry (e.g. Huntington's Disease, Dementia, Acquired Brain Injury), Autism Spectrum Disorder, Learning Disability and CAMHS. Whilst this post is to work in the Neuropsychiatry service, there may be requirements for working in other services in the future.
Successful candidates will provide specialist evidence-based communication and dysphagia input to meet the needs of a complex patient group and support the multidisciplinary approach to holistic, patient centred care and recovery within a specialty field. They will receive direct support from a Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist, as well as peer support from other Specialists within the team.
Our vision is to be at the forefront of specialist SLT provisions working within Mental Health. The successful candidate will be pro-active and accountable, and will be involved in ongoing service development projects to help us achieve this goal.
