The Technical Instructor role is to complete new assessments for clients requesting review of walking aids, bathing needs, and provision equipment to promote independence within the home. They also support our therapists with rehabilitation programmes for clients at home. The role involves communicating information and advice to service users, carers, families, agencies, providers, and professional colleagues verbally and in written form, using information technology appropriately.
Responsibilities include providing written and electronic reports, detailing assessments and recommendations, and making recommendations to facilitate the implementation and provision of assistive equipment and minor adaptations.
Additionally, the instructor will fit assistive devices and equipment within competency banding with a degree of accuracy and expertise using hand-eye coordination. This may be undertaken in restrictive conditions, such as clients' home environments. The ability to support Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists with moving and handling duties is essential.
