We are recruiting for an Occupational Therapist for a specialist unit that offers a range of comprehensive inpatient mental health services for young people and adults. The focus of the service is to help people to live their best life in a safe and supportive environment.
The PICU services have been designed to support people in a severe phase of their condition, who cannot be managed in acute services. Our dedicated PICU services place us at the forefront of specialised intensive care, and highly trained teams can support people with complex needs and behaviours that may challenge, along with co-existing issues (such as substance misuse).
The Occupational Therapist will provide assistance to professional and clinical staff with the planning, implementation and evaluation of therapeutic activities in order to improve mental, emotional well-being and quality of life for our patients.
