The Role:
As part of the continued growth and development of the Reablement Service within Hampshire, we are excited to share the opportunity for you to join us as an Occupational Therapist. You will be responsible for leading holistic assessments of Reablement need and planning interventions to support across a multi-disciplinary team. You will also have opportunity to support service development and innovation.
Through service redesign we have ensured all staff, including our Occupational Therapists, have the benefit of Advanced Practitioners, Consultants, and a Lead Occupational Therapist to support excellent standards of practice across both the Reablement Service and the wider department. This is encompassed by the four pillars of professional practice, facilitation of learning, leadership and education, research & development. (RCOT 2021).
Occupational Therapy principles underpin our service, and we are continually seeking opportunities to enhance delivery. Personal development for all staff is a priority, having a structured workforce development plan in place whereby we actively encourage and support continuing professional development, including formal qualification routes.
We are passionate about working in collaborative partnership with organisations across Health and Social care in maximising independence, preventing hospital admissions, and facilitating rapid discharge from hospital to improve outcomes for the people of Hampshire.
We would also welcome interest from newly qualified Occupational Therapists to apply and we are able to offer a preceptorship programme.
The Reablement Service operates 7 days a week and there will be a requirement to work weekends on a rotational 1:8 basis.
Please note, applications will be reviewed as soon as they are received, therefore the vacancy may close before the deadline.
Values Based Recruitment:
Professionalism – we work hard to deliver the best services that we can and we hold ourselves accountable for our performance. We have pride in what we deliver and enable.
Working as one organisation – we collaborate with each other and our partners for the good of our service users.

Making a difference – our work puts people at the forefront of what we do and helps communities across the County to thrive. We care.
Continuous improvement – we are ambitious. We challenge ourselves to innovate, be creative and work to create a sustainable, future proof Hampshire.
