    Specialist Occupational Therapist- Integrated Community Stroke Service (ICSS) - Band 6 - Full Time FTC 12 months to cover Maternity Leave

    Following significant investment into community stroke services for Herts Valleys, we are now welcoming applications from enthusiastic Occupational Therapists with an interest and, ideally, experience in stroke rehabilitation to work collaboratively within the new Integrated Community Stroke Service (ICSS) offering both community and discharge pathways.

    This modern stroke service infrastructure follows the national service model and is delivered by a multidisciplinary team offering stroke rehabilitation in patients own home in and around West Hertfordshire, at a range of intensities. Within the model we have the following:

  • Early Supported Discharge (ESD), commonly a course of high-intensity rehabilitation that a patient receives over up to 6 weeks following a discharge for mild-moderate new stroke.
  • Neurological Enhanced Transition Team (NETT), commonly a course of high-intensive rehabilitation delivered up to 6 weeks following a discharge for moderate to severe new stroke or other neurological conditions.
  • Community referral, which is for patients experiencing a change in their daily function directly related to a pre-existing stroke injury
  • Main duties of the job

    This is a great opportunity for someone who is conscientious and adaptable. The successful candidate will have excellent communication skills and will be able to demonstrate an adaptable approach whilst meeting guidelines and stroke standards as well as being part of the new stroke pathway.

    Are you an experienced Occupational Therapist, looking for a new challenge? Do you love seeing patients achieve their goals? Would you like to be involved in developing provision for stroke patients? Would you like to work in a supportive, friendly and passionate multidisciplinary team?

    If this is you, then come and work with us in our ICSS Team. We are seeking an enthusiastic skilled OT to be part of the OT team. You will form an essential part of a dedicated, knowledgeable multi-disciplinary team that regularly engages with team and individual clinical supervision. Development and training opportunities are available through the CLCH Academy.

    If this sounds like the opportunity you are looking for contact Nicci Estabrook on or Deb Croall on for more information.
