We have an exciting opportunity to recruit to the OT Band 6 rotation to work within the acute services at the Victoria Hospital and the HSCP in ICT at Whytemans Brae Hospital. We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Occupational Therapist to work alongside colleagues in the Acute Medical OT Team, the Integrated Community Team and the Frailty Team within AU1. Rotations will be 9 months in each area. A strong interest in working with a range of conditions (predominantly with patients living with frailty) to develop specialist skills and knowledge to deliver effective evidenced based care, to optimise occupational performance and promote and support safe and timely discharge from hospital, is essential to the role. You will manage your own caseload, participate in multi-agency working and will engage in quality improvement activities both collectively and independently. There is an opportunity to develop additional competencies within Physiotherapy and basic nursing skills to support integrated working. We ask for engagement with weekend working and we support this with a dynamic approach to work patterns. We consider flexible working; provide hybrid undergraduate placements and we support selective home working for non-clinical pieces of work. Within the Frailty Team rotation there is an expectation you will undertake 12.5-hour shift pattern which includes weekends. Please come and join our friendly departments; further to the detail of the role above, you will receive in-service training, regular appraisal and PDP meetings, leadership development opportunities and both peer and management support. Whilst you should have the ability to travel throughout Fife effectively in a timely manner, the VHK is commutable from Lothian, Forth Valley, Dundee and Perth and car share amongst colleagues is often available. For informal enquiries, please contact Lorna Brocklesby, OT Manager on 01592 643355 ext 21646 / Emma McArthur, Team Lead MOE on ext 21172 or Claire Dumbreck, Team Lead, ICT on ext 28129. A requirement of this post is to become a member of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme Prior to appointment. NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recruiting Board. NHS Fife is legally obliged to ensure all its employees are legally entitled to work in the United Kingdom. If you are not a United Kingdom (UK) or Irish National, you are required to confirm your right to work in your application.
