Job Requirements/Description
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and experienced Physiotherapy Support Worker (Band 4) to join the South Kerrier Community Rehabilitation Team based at Helston Community Hospital.
We are looking for someone who ideally has experience of working in a community care or hospital inpatient setting and wishes to develop their therapy assessment, care planning and rehabilitation skills whilst being part of a dynamic, progressive Integrated team.
This post will involve working on both Lismore Ward and within the South Kerrier Community Rehabilitation Team as part of the South Kerrier Therapy Team.
We are open to receiving applications from people who have transferable skills and are passionate about motivating people to achieve their goals.
We welcome contact prior to applications/ interviews, so please call us if you would like to know more about the role.
Under the guidance of the physiotherapists you will be responsible for triage, assessment, treatment and discharge of patients within your caseload. You will need to assist in the interpretation of information relevant to the patient’s condition/progress, identify problems and patient needs, setting realistic goals.
You will need to have excellent organisational skills combined with experience of working in a care setting, preferably a therapeutic one.
We are a supportive team, including Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists and support workers with Multi-disciplinary Team working. We offer a friendly and supportive working environment where you can develop your clinical and interpersonal skills. CPD is actively encouraged and supported through regular supervision/appraisal and training.
This is both a community and hospital-based role that requires frequent travel to various locations throughout the county including areas that may not be accessible by public transportation. Successful candidates will need to demonstrate how they will manage these travel requirements.
We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.
We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you’ll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.
Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.
We work in people’s homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.
Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increase the numbers of people who use out services.
