• Gain broad clinical experience across generic, orthopaedic, musculoskeletal, respiratory, neurological rehabilitation, and falls prevention.

• Contribute to the day-to-day operational management of the team, including participating in handovers and supporting treatment planning through virtual ward rounds.

• Provide supervision and support to junior staff and students.

• Engage in in-service training and ongoing Continuing Professional Development opportunities.
