We are excited to offer an opportunity for a Band 3 member of staff to join the Acute Therapy Services. The successful candidate will be part of our orthopedic trauma therapy team.
We are looking for applicants who are dedicated yet flexible in their approach and possess the aptitude to adapt quickly to new situations.
The post is a 12-month fixed-term position for maternity cover for 17.5 hours a week.
The successful candidate will be expected to work as part of a multidisciplinary acute therapy team on our orthopedic trauma wards, assisting with the delivery of therapy and facilitating safe discharge from hospital.
The post holder will work under the direction of Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists to implement planned interventions either within the hospital or in the appropriate community setting; this may include simple environmental assessments and the prescription of simple equipment (as deemed within competence) or practice of specific therapeutic interventions/techniques.
The post holder will communicate effectively with community services to assist in the planning of safe and effective discharge. The post holder will assist therapists in carrying out administrative duties associated with the delivery of service.
As this is a Trustwide post, the successful candidate may be required to work between the Stockton and Hartlepool localities, but will be predominantly based in University Hospital of North Tees.
Working for our organisation
At North Tees & Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust, our main priority is, and always will be, to provide safe and high-quality care to our patients every day; the kind of care we would want for ourselves and our loved ones.
We want our organisation to be the best place to work with the right staff, in the right roles, at the right time, to ensure we deliver exceptional patient care and experience.
We will support staff by providing an inclusive and supportive workplace with health and well-being initiatives, staff benefits, and opportunities for personal and professional development. Staff recognition is very important to us; as well as performance reviews and appraisals, we recognise staff through Star and Team of the Month, colleague recognition – a note of thanks, Managers Awards, Shining Stars, and Service Awards.
We actively encourage staff involvement with staff networking events and staff surveys.
“Together we are North Tees & Hartlepool.”
The post holder will work under the supervision of registered therapists to support and rehabilitate patients to enable their safe return home or to ensure they are placed in a safe environment where continued rehabilitation/care is provided. This will be achieved through improved integrated discharge pathways and working collaboratively with discharge liaison and the patient flow teams.
To confidently implement the prescribed therapy plan including mobility/functional interventions to enable people to leave hospital.
