This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a multi-disciplinary ward team, which is professionally supported by a Band 7 Clinical Specialist OT. There is a mix of band 5, band 6 and band 7 occupational therapists across the acute and crisis mental health service, as well as other professions, including Lived Experience Practitioners and Occupational Therapy Technical Instructors. It is a friendly and supportive team and we welcome new staff and the innovative ideas and skills they bring.

The post involves occupational therapy specific work across the 3 wards with a mix of opportunities including clinical caseload, MDT working and group interventions.

This post provides an excellent mix of opportunities to develop your occupational therapy career.  You will provide clinical supervision to junior staff and support OT student placements at Green Parks House. The postholder will offer assessments and promote occupational functioning and wellbeing on the wards while also facilitating safe and effective discharges, including maintaining some contact with service users who might use the outpatient programme.
