We have an opportunity for an Occupational Therapy Assistant to join our team on Cotswold View Ward at North Cotswolds Hospital.  The hospital is located with close boundaries to Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and Worcestershire.

We work within a multidisciplinary team in partnership with physiotherapists, nurses, GPs, mental health services and social care. We work closely with community services which include the integrated community team, community and bed based reablement, and voluntary organisations.  Our aim is to enable people to live as independently as possible and the ethos of the team is rehabilitation with a person-centred approach to achieve recovery and self-management.

Applicants will need to be motivated, possess good organisational and personal management skills; have good communication and interpersonal skills; and demonstrate an ability to be flexible and adaptable.

As a Band 3 Occupational Therapy Assistant you will be well supported by the Occupational Therapists in the team and will receive regular supervision, appraisal and CPD opportunities.

If you would like to work for an organisation that values its staff, aims to deliver the best care, offering compassion to all patients, their carers and families, and you can demonstrate this to us, we would like to hear from you

If you are seeking an exciting development opportunity and wish to be part of a hospital-based therapy team we would like to hear from you.

Gweithio i'n sefydliad

We have in excess of 5000 staff working over 50 sites, providing a diverse range of services. We strive to support an organisational culture that is welcoming, builds and celebrates inclusivity and diversity and provides a sense of belonging and trust. 

The annual NHS Staff Survey gives our people the opportunity to tell us about their experience working at the Trust.  For the 2023 survey just over 2800 colleagues gave us their views (58.5%).   It was great to see from the results that colleagues are saying that:

• 89.7% believe they are making a positive difference to patients/service users; 
• 73.3% would recommend the organisation as a place to work; 
• 82.4% agree that care of patients and service users is the organisations priority;
• 76.7% would be happy with the standard of care for a friend or relative     

Our results put us as 5th nationally as a Community, Mental Health and Learning Disabilities NHS Employer of Choice and 1st equal amongst all NHS Provider Trusts in the South West. However, we know we have more to do and will continue to drive forward our commitment to making GHC a Great Place to Work.
