Description

Are you looking for a fresh challenge? Fancy working for the first Community Health Trust to be awarded an 'Outstanding' rating in a recent CQC inspection? Then this could be just the opportunity you've been waiting for.

Our musculoskeletal (MSK) team has a vacancy for a full-time, 37.5-hours-a-week, MSK Assistant Practitioner. Although part time hours can be considered.

As part of our friendly team, you'll need to show compassion, empathy and a 'can do' attitude in helping our patients to achieve their goals.

Providing this patient care is at the heart of what we do.

  • You'll be expected to lead therapeutic group exercise sessions both virtually (via video link) and facetoface and to provide onetoone rehab sessions.
  • You'll also use the ESCAPE pain programme, or equivalent, to provide education and management strategies
  • You'll adapt exercise programmes to individual patients within your competency, using your skills and experience, and you'll have access to regular supervision by qualified clinicians.
  • You'll be expected to be able to use a laptop computer, since our Trust uses electronic recordkeeping, and you'll be expected to record details of patient care after each clinical consultation. We can provide training and support to help you here.
  • Preparation of bespoke hand splints according to specifications provided by therapists.
  • Will be required to work earlier morning, later afternoon, evening or weekends depending on the needs of the service.
