Occupational Therapist/Senior Assessment Officer, Manchester City Council
Pay rate: £37.00 per hour
We are recruiting for a qualified Occupational Therapist to join an Aids & Adaptations Team in Manchester!
The role involves carrying out functional assessments for disabled children across the city who have both physical and hidden disabilities. These assessments will take place in the child's home, sometimes at school as part of an MDT approach with health colleagues and the social care team. You will be expected to carry a caseload and case manage each allocation.
You will identify equipment and adaptations that will promote the child's independence, including postural seating, specialist equipment such as shower chairs, beds, moving and handling risk assessments, safe spaces, padded rooms, and safety assessments. You will make submissions to the majors panel for adaptations. You will also be expected to attend CiN and MDT meetings where appropriate and liaise with external agencies to ensure the best outcomes for the disabled child.
