We're in the unique position of being able to advertise for a B7 Physio Team Lead to join our established MDT in ERS (Enhanced Recovery and Support at Home), part of the wider Intermediate Care Team.

Alongside the OT Team Lead and Nursing Team Lead, you will jointly lead the service both clinically and operationally. We pride ourselves on our culture of Continuous Improvement, championing new ways of working to support patients at home.

Patients are either at risk of admission to hospital or we have facilitated their early discharge home. We are a short term rehab service supporting patients to return to as independent level of functioning at home as possible. 

You will hold your own small, complex caseload and have line management responsibility for your team of Physios, who in turn line manage junior staff including Rehab Support Workers. Every Physio will have at least one student each academic year and we submit therapy requests to the Trust's CPD bid annually, including universal and therapy-specific masters modules. 

In September we have a member of the team commencing their Physio Apprenticeship and another commencing their OT Apprenticeship. This will be our second OT Apprenticeship.

There are other Physio Team Leads within Intermediate Care, one in each Community Therapies (long term rehab) and Community Inpatients, meaning you will have peer support and peer clinical supervision both immediately within the team and as part of the wider community services.
