Position
An opportunity has arisen for a Specialist Physiotherapist at University Hospital Ayr.
What you will do:
The rotations are all based in South Ayrshire at either University Hospital Ayr or Biggart Hospital in Prestwick. This post will be ideal for Band 5 candidates looking to develop within their career to gain experience of a more senior clinical role without committing to a permanent specialism.
You will be responsible for delivering highly skilled physiotherapy to patients in the respective clinical areas. You will act as a senior clinical decision maker, leading complex care and discharge planning and delivering rehabilitation to ensure patients are optimally rehabilitated and discharged effectively and efficiently. Community and lone working will form a facet of some rotations. You will make onward referral to other services as required. You will also support the development of less experienced, unregistered staff and students within the team.
In turn, you will be supported to develop into the role and responsibilities of a Band 6 clinician and of the relevant specialist skills of each rotation. You will be passionate about empowering patients to achieve their goals and to remain as independent and active as possible. Participation in service improvement is expected and encouraged. Contribution to the on-call physiotherapy service is a requirement of the post.

Diploma/MSc/BSc in Physiotherapy
