Mental Health Occupational Therapist – Private

Job offered by: Positive Healthcare PLC
·
We are currently looking for a full-time Mental Health Occupational Therapist for one of our clients based in East London.

The ward is a 13-bed acute mental health service for women. The service provides a safe and stabilizing environment for individuals who are experiencing an acute episode of mental illness and require an emergency admission. The ethos of this service is about assessing and treating service users in the least restrictive environment and planning for discharge in a robust and timely fashion.

With a focus on stabilization, we will support service users to manage their mental health, reinforce daily living skills, and prepare for independent life back in the community.

Our multidisciplinary team works closely and collaboratively with service users, their families, and the referrer to provide a seamless pathway from referral to discharge. Our approach is recovery-focused and supported by a comprehensive multi-disciplinary team, contributing to shorter lengths of stay.

As an Occupational Therapist, you will provide direct clinical care which will encompass OT assessments, treatment, and management of individuals/interventions and support for individuals within the service. In this role, you will assess, implement, and develop an OT treatment program according to an individual's identified needs. This will be based upon findings from assessments including associated risks, in order to develop treatment plans accordingly within the multidisciplinary team.

We work together to lead the provision of robust therapy and education programs and contribute to wider service improvement initiatives to drive high-quality care.

The post holder will be the Occupational Therapist for a female acute ward. This role includes the supervision of the Occupational Therapy Assistant on the ward.

Previous experience is essential, along with excellent communication skills and a commitment to team working.

The post holder must also be HCPC registered.

Unfortunately, we are not able to consider those who require sponsorship; you should already have your Right to Work without any restrictions.

Please only apply if you satisfy our requirements.
