Job overview
Frimley Health are looking for a Physiotherapy assistant with a ‘can-do’ attitude to join our team at Wexham Park Hospital to work across a range of our departments. While it is desirable for you to have previous experience working in a hospital or care environment, we are looking for an individual who is passionate about delivering excellent standards of care.
In this ward-based role, you will primarily assist the physiotherapy team with delivering rehab to a variety of patients, some of whom may be quite unwell, so you may, therefore, be working in demanding environments.

This needs to be entered into the supporting information section of the application form and will form part of the assessment criteria. We also want you to tell us your understanding of the role of Physiotherapy in a hospital setting.
Previous applicants need not apply. If successful, it is essential you are able to attend this face-to-face interview; online alternatives will not be available.
Please note that we are unable to provide visa sponsorship for this position. Applicants must have the right to work in the UK.
