    The successful candidates will participate in a diverse, 9 monthly rotation working across sites in Acute (North Tyneside General Hospital & Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital), Community (based at Cobalt Business Exchange) and Intermediate Care settings (North Tyneside).


    The rotation will allow the successful candidates to gain enhanced clinical experience across a wide range of specialities including, but not limited to, Care of the Elderly, Acute and Emergency Medicine, Surgery, Respiratory, Orthopaedics and Community Rehabilitation.

    Elements of this role include leadership, quality improvement, opportunities for audit and research.

    The Community Response Services provide care 8am - 8pm, 7 days per week. Working patterns vary and flexible working requests will be considered.

    We are looking for candidates who are motivated, enthusiastic and willing to engage in current service developments & audits and use highly developed Occupational Therapy skills and evidence-based practice to enhance the health and wellbeing of patients.

    The candidate will be expected to work closely with the wider multi-disciplinary team to foster an environment of high quality and seamless therapy pathways across North Tyneside and Northumberland.

    This will ensure high quality individualised care is delivered which focuses on promoting independence and optimising recovery after illness or injury.

    The successful candidate will be supported by supervision and appraisal processes and will have opportunities to complete specialist training to enhance key skills and knowledge.

    We also care for people in their homes and provide services from facilities in local communities such as health centres.

    We give people greater choice and control over their care to help them to live independently at home and avoid hospital admission where appropriate.

    High quality patient care is at the heart of everything we do and we strive to ensure every single patient and service user has an exceptional experience with us.
