Do you want to be part of an innovative, dynamic organisation that is committed to delivering the best care by the best people? We are looking to appoint people who are as passionate about high quality care as we are. BHRUT is actively recruiting a Band 7 Physiotherapist for our care of the elderly wards at King George Hospital.
You will be working as part of our friendly team of therapists. Working in a fast-paced environment, you will have the opportunity to expand your clinical skills and knowledge. We have a philosophy of continuous learning to improve patient outcomes, which means we are committed to the professional development of our workforce. We want to ensure you have the opportunity to grow.
With the support of our Practice Development Facilitator for Therapies and our Senior Intern for Allied Healthcare Professionals, BHRUT is an ideal place to continue your career.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Through a holistic approach, provide a specialist standard of physiotherapy service to patients within your area of specialty, facilitating and maximising patient potential within the service boundaries.
2. Give highly specialist guidance to other members of the MDT on matters relating to the therapy service to the care of the elderly wards.
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better, and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with. We’re no longer in special measures; we’ve opened two new theatres at our Elective Surgical Hub in King George Hospital (KGH); and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal.
We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 330,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.
Our patients are benefitting from our Women’s Health Hub in Ilford, an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch, and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub in Hornchurch. These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week and are providing an extra 88,000 scans a year.
The majority of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record that will be transformative for our staff and beneficial for our patients.
