Main duties of the job
The role is primarily concerned with creating and delivering goal focused treatment plans. Our client group is very varied and while it is mainly older adults - the service supports those over 18 years old - with functional difficulties. The role is diverse and a competency framework in in place to support skill acquisition to enable the delivery of this care. Care delivery also occurs in a clinic environment and maintaining accurate records and supporting the wider team to safely manage the waiting lists is a key part of this role.
This role requires excellent communication skills both digital and verbal and a confidant manner when speaking to the public.
You will be required to have some knowledge and experience of working with people older adults and be able to offer support and care to them whilst they are treated by the service.
You need to be able to work effectively within a team whilst being supported by registered staff.
We welcome insight visits and will be as flexible as possible.
