    Occupational Therapist 1x WTE

    We are seeking to recruit an OT keen to work within this rapidly developing clinical area and for the right person this would provide an excellent career opportunity. A secondment for anyone keen to consider applying relevant experience and knowledge would be welcomed and new skills could be directly reinvested for future career or service development in many aspects of OT.

    The clinical skills needed for success could have been gained in a wide variety of settings and there is the scope to use a wide breadth of core OT skills for assessment, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation to maintain people living at home, offering advice and guidance to support and empower natural support networks. An understanding of the presentation of mental health conditions and co-morbidity in older people is important. The challenge of autonomous working is supported by immediate line management from Specialist OTs and the professional supervision structure within Mental Health Occupational Therapy/Edinburgh Health and Social Care Partnership.

    The future of OPMH and contribution of OT within the specialism is supported by key Scottish Government strategies. The current focus of service development is exciting allowing us to develop collaborations, networks and influence across the Older People's pathway and we are engaged in the delivery of national improvement programmes eg OT Home Biased Memory Rehabilitation, local developments eg Early intervention and Improving access to Everyday Technology to support Carers and improve quality of life while also supporting people to remain in their own home.

    This post requires the post holder to have a PVG Scheme membership/ record. If the post holder is not a current PVG member for the required regulatory group (i.e. child and/or adult) then an application will need to be made to Disclosure Scotland and deemed satisfactory before they can begin in post

    NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recruiting Board.
