Reference: 2357229
Job summary
The Hospital at Home (H@H) service is an adjunct pathway to Urgent Community Response (UCR), delivering hospital-level monitoring and clinical intervention to acutely unwell adults in their own homes across the London Borough of Hillingdon. Operating 08:00-20:00, seven days per week, H@H provides an integrated step-up (admission avoidance) and step-down (early supported discharge) model in accordance with the NHS England Virtual Wards Operational Framework and the Hillingdon Health and Care Partnership Borough-wide Reactive Care Service.
The Band 7 Advanced Occupational Therapist is a senior clinical role at the heart of the UCR and H@H MDT. As the most senior therapy clinician on the H@H establishment, the post holder is the primary OT lead for the service, providing expert occupational therapy assessment, intervention, clinical reasoning, and discharge planning for complex, frail, and acutely unwell patients in their own homes. The role encompasses autonomous clinical practice, H@H Initial Visits, clerking of step-up patients, caseload prioritisation, and senior clinical oversight of therapy delivery within the team.
The post holder must be able to work flexibly over a 7-day week including weekday and weekend shifts and will frequently work as a lone practitioner in community settings.
Main duties of the job
o Be professionally and legally accountable for all aspects of own clinical work, managing an autonomous and complex caseload of UCR and H@H patients in accordance with HCPC standards and the RCOT Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.

o Perform the UCR / H@H Initial Visit for patients stepped up to H@H following the 48-hour C2R review, within 4 hours of the MDT decision - including OT-specific components of the clinical clerking, functional status, environmental risk, equipment, and advancing goal setting.
o Conduct advanced occupational therapy assessment for patients with acute illness, frailty, cognitive impairment, complex multi-morbidity, and diverse psychosocial needs, using validated tools (Rockwood Clinical Frailty Scale, Barthel Index, 6CIT, MUST, FRAT, environmental and manual handling risk assessment, seating and postural assessment) and applying higher-level clinical reasoning to formulate accurate occupational profiles and intervention plans.
o Deputise for the UCR / H@H Clinical Lead as needed in the day-to-day clinical leadership of the H@H pathway, including triage and prioritisation of referrals, chairing the morning MDT in the Clinical Lead's absence, and supporting the H@H COD in complex case management and caseload prioritisation by acuity.

Reference: 2350609
Job summary
This role is offered on a fixed term basis for 18 months. The hours are full or part time.
We have an exciting opportunity for a newly qualified or established Occupational Therapist to join our friendly team of therapists at Stroud Hospital working on the in-patient wards. We welcome applications from those looking for their first post or those seeking to develop their existing role. The successful candidate will be an integral member of the team and will work in a ward-based environment. You will work with an experienced and friendly multidisciplinary team alongside physiotherapists, nurses, GPs, mental health services and social care.
If you are enthusiastic, have a person-centred approach to care, enjoy working within a small team of therapists and are keen to progress clients to achieve their goals we would love to hear from you. In turn you will be well supported with CPD opportunities to develop and grow as a therapist within our organisation. We are looking for a full time or part time occupational therapist, to include Fridays as a working day. The post is fixed term for 18 months but will have the potential to become permanent in future.
Main duties of the job
Stroud hospital has two wards, providing sub-acute care, rehabilitation and end of life care to patients. Our aim is to enable people to live as independently as possible and the ethos of the team is rehabilitation with a person-led approach to achieve recovery and return home. Much of the role involves assessment of patients with multiple pathologies, implementing rehabilitation goals and coordinating safe discharges for the patients. We pride ourselves on being a creative and innovative team who enjoy the benefits of the autonomous style of working that the wards allow.
Other benefits include working in a beautifully situated facility with a friendly team and free parking.
The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
About us
We have a skilled and dedicated workforce of over 5000 colleagues working in a diverse range of services over 55 sites and within people's homes. We strive to enable a welcoming workplace culture that builds and celebrates civility, inclusivity and diversity, while providing a sense of belonging and trust.
Annual staff surveys, regular Pulse surveys and other engagement opportunities provide our people with lots of opportunity to tell us about their experiences of working with us. In the latest staff survey, 61% of colleagues gave us their views. It was great to hear that:
- 72% of colleagues would recommend the Trust as a place to work, ranking us 1st for Provider Trusts in the South West region on this question.
- 76% would recommend the standard of care provided in our services if a friend or relative needed treatment, also ranking us 1st in the South West region.
- 81% said that care of patients and service users is the Trust's priority, compared with an average in comparable NHS Trusts in England of 64%.
This high-level overview shows we are in a healthy position, with higher scores than average for comparable organisations, alongside a great response rate, indicating good staff engagement. However, we also know we have plenty of room for improvement in many areas. To that end, we continue to prioritise and invest in our commitment to genuinely becoming a Great Place to Work with consistent top-quartile performance in the annual staff survey and Pulse surveys.
