Occupational Therapist - Perth, United Kingdom - NHS Scotland
Description
NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
Applications are invited for an Occupational Therapist to join our multidisciplinary Community Mental Health Teams.
We work flexibly to provide an equitable community occupational therapy service covering all localities within the Perth and Kinross HSCP. This covers a mix of Perth city and rural geography.
The post holder will provide occupational therapy interventions to enable and support people to achieve their best possible personal outcomes within their homes and communities.
We are looking for a person with a genuine interest in mental health and wellbeing and a commitment to promoting the value of occupational therapy. We use occupation as the foundation of our work in collaboration with people as a basis for bringing value and purpose to their lives. This may involve the use of specialist assessment, current evidence based treatments, or techniques to support decision making, goal achievement, empowerment through independence, supported self-management and recovery where possible.
Our Service provides excellent formal and informal supervision, actively supports individual development through performance development review and learning plans, provides a framework for encouraging CPD and promotes innovative practice.
Please apply if you -
Applicants must be registered with HCPC.
Informal enquiries to: Mark Gean-Hughes, Occupational Therapist (acting Team Lead)
Hours of work are configured over Monday to Friday 37hrs
Short-listed applicants will be contacted by email. Please check your emails regularly, including your junk/spam folder.
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.
