Applications for this role should be written by the applicant.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Therapy Support Worker to join our Inpatient Therapy Service based at the William Harvey Hospital.
The Therapy Team specialises in the assessment and rehabilitation of patients to assist with recovery and discharge planning. This is a static post, however, there will be the opportunity to work with our therapy colleagues within the wider therapy team. The post-holder would support the Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists in delivering a high quality of therapy to patients.
As a Band 3 Therapy Support Worker you will be part of a Therapy team comprising Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Therapy Assistant Practitioners and Therapy Support Workers. The successful applicant will be a valued member of the team, working alongside the MDT, under direction of the therapists as they strive to provide high quality care through effective team work.
There is regular in-service training provided by both therapies and other MDT members.
As a therapy team we are constantly involved in service development and the post holder will be involved alongside the therapy team in new projects, service developments and initiatives to ensure best practice at all times.
We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 800,000 people.
Our vision is 'great healthcare from great people'. Everything we do is guided by our values: ‘People feel cared for, safe, respected and confident that we are making a difference’.
We have a new way of working at East Kent Hospitals, called ‘We care’. It’s about empowering frontline staff to lead improvements day-to-day. We’re looking for compassionate people to be part of our improvement journey for the patients, families and carers we care for every day.
Applications for this role should be written by the applicant. If artificial intelligence (AI) programmes are used then the application may be rejected due to this document being an important part of the assessment process. This does not prevent applicants seeking appropriate support with applications should they need to for the purposes of any declared disability.
Please note that if you require a Certificate of Sponsorship to work in the UK you must declare this on your application form, even if you currently have a certificate of sponsorship or a work permit for another role and are already working in the country. Please note we are only able to sponsor candidates on a Skilled Worker Visa applying for roles Band 5 and above.
