Occupational Therapist - Home First Response
The Maximising Independence Service focuses on early resolution, prevention and promoting independence and wellbeing for all people. Its purpose is to help people to maximise their independence as much as possible by providing information, advice and guidance, setting short-term goals and identifying support to achieve those goals.
It incorporates Occupational Therapy-led Reablement Teams, which deliver individually tailored reablement programmes designed to prevent and reduce ongoing care and support needs.
This post is based with the MIS Mid Notts Reablement Team and is part of a new initiative to recruit Occupational Therapist to provide an assessment and reablement to people receiving a "bridging" home-care service following a hospital stay or critical care need.
Advanced remote working technology is provided to maximise efficiency, minimise travel and support work/life balance.
Disabled applicants who meet the essential shortlisting requirements will be guaranteed an interview. A job share scheme is available for all full-time posts: both permanent and temporary, unless otherwise stated. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and we expect all staff to share this commitment and undergo appropriate checks.
