We are currently recruiting for a Physiotherapist to be part of the Havant and Waterlooville Integrated Care Team, based at Havant Health Centre. You will be joining a friendly and supportive team within a leading organization that is both forward thinking and innovative. The post would suit a current band 6 Physiotherapist or a current band 5 looking for development into a band 6 position.

This Physiotherapist position is designed to contribute to avoiding hospital admission and rehabilitating patients in their own homes throughout the Havant and Waterlooville localities. Clients accessing this service will have a wide range of pathologies and will be predominantly (but not exclusively) in the elderly care group. This post offers the opportunity to work closely with all members of the MDT both in primary, secondary care, adult Services as well as with care/nursing home staff.

As a registered professional you will automatically become a member of our Academy of Clinical Excellence (ACE) which has a specific focus on the professional development and career progression of our nurses and Allied Health Professionals. As part of ACE’s commitment to you, our development pathway for band 6’s focuses on enhancing your competence and confidence as a senior clinician and leader. As such, you will have access to masters level academic study with our partner universities as well as access to a variety of internal and external leadership programmes, workshops and support tools. The Academy encourages all our registrants to engage with service improvement, research and facilitating learning and a range of opportunities to support these core professional activities is available from ACE. To help you progress your journey with us, you will have access to a ‘Career Navigation’ conversation which will help you explore your career aspirations and make decisions about your career trajectory.

Following a period of induction and mentorship you will be responsible for coordinating a plan of care and rehabilitation, through identifying person-centred rehabilitation goals following assessment, working within your scope of practice autonomously as a registered practitioner. You will need excellent communication skills and be competent in linking with the larger multidisciplinary team.

The successful applicant will be proficient, knowledgeable and competent. The post will also include supervising Band 5 or assistant staff and participating in the in-service training programme.

This job involves a proportionate amount of time driving. You will need to be a car driver and have access to a car for work.

Happy to talk flexible working- all requests for flexible and part time working will be considered.
