Reference: 2342460
Job summary
We are looking to recruit a band 5 occupatonal therapist to our rotational scheme on a fixed term contract. Our rotations are based at both The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital Trust sites including the following specialty areas: Stroke (hyper acute and acute rehabilitation), Frailty at the front door (ED and AMU), Cardiology, Endocrinology, Care of the Elderly, Respiratory, Orthopaedics and Surgery including amputees.
This post offers the opportunity to join for 2 of our rotations.
Main duties of the job
With 250+ employees working within our Therapy Department, we pride ourselves on enabling all our workforce the opportunity to develop and grow their skills, offering a career, not just a job.
When joining our team you will be welcomed to attend our band 5 trust preceptorship programme and in-house training scheme, as well as receive learning specific to each rotational specialty area.
Throughout each rotation you will be supported by your named supervisor who will also be a specialist in your rotational clinical area. Your supervisor will enable you to develop skills to work independently as well as alongside other therapy and MDT colleagues.
Our organisational vision is 'To provide excellent care for the communities we serve' and as a member of the Therapy services team your contribution to the profession of Occupational Therapy will be integral in enabling patients to receive holistic assessment to enable them to recover and be discharged from the hospital environment.
About us
Our Poppy's Promise Commitment
We believe that compassionate care sits at the heart of everything we do. Every member of our team -- clinical or non-clinical -- plays a vital role in ensuring that patients, families, and colleagues are treated with dignity, empathy, and respect at all times.
We expect all staff to demonstrate compassion not only through their words, but through their actions: by listening attentively, communicating clearly and kindly, and recognising individual needs, feelings, and circumstances of those in our care.
Effective communication is central to safe and high-quality healthcare. We value colleagues who take the time to understand others, explain information in a meaningful way, and respond to concerns with patience and understanding.
By joining our team, you are committing to uphold these values -- ensuring that every patient feels heard, respected, and valued, and that compassion is embedded in every interaction, every day.
Hospital Transformation Programme (HTP)
Our Service will relocate to The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital in 2028 as part of HTP. This move will bring specialist services together in a modern, purpose-built facility to improve patient care and team experience.
We are actively recruiting, and successful candidates will be expected to move with the Service in early 2028. The relocation will follow a formal management of change process, including full consultation and support for staff.
