A structured development pathway is available for Band 3 appointees to support progression to Band 4.

Our specialist service provides rehabilitation for adults living with stroke and a wide range of neurological conditions across community settings, including patients' homes, community hospitals and outpatient clinics. You will join a friendly, supportive multidisciplinary team committed to maximising independence and quality of life.

The role involves delivering rehabilitation programmes delegated by Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists, supporting mobility, transfers, daily living activities, exercise programmes and self-management. You will monitor progress, provide feedback to therapists, support carers and work with health, social care and voluntary sector partners to achieve the best outcomes for patients.

We are seeking an enthusiastic individual with experience in a health, social care or rehabilitation setting, excellent communication skills, a flexible approach and a commitment to person-centred care. We offer regular supervision, appraisal, training, leadership development opportunities and support to develop specialist skills in stroke and neurological rehabilitation.

This may be in clinics within community hospitals, in the community, or the patient's own home. This is may not be directly supervised by the therapist (e.g. practising mobility, exercises or activities of daily living).

To support safe ongoing rehabilitation in patients' homes and community settings.
