About the role
Salary: £38488.00 to £46852.00
We have an exciting opportunity for a band 5 Occupational Therapist to join our children's community team in Barts Health NHS Trust in Tower Hamlets. You will be based in Mile End Hospital.
The Community Children's Therapies team provides physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy for children and young people up to the age of 19 in Tower Hamlets. Most of the children and young people we work with have developmental difficulties which often are linked to a medical diagnosis e.g. cerebral palsy or autism. Our services are delivered in clinics, schools, nursery settings, children and family centres and homes. You will be required to complete visits in a variety of settings eg homes, schools, children's centres. As well as working at a 'specialist' level where we accept referrals for individual children and young people to our service, we also work with partner organisations like schools and children and family centres to enable other professionals to support families at a 'targeted' level. Building the capacity of other professionals and parents to support children and young people with developmental difficulties is a key priority for our team.
