INTERNAL CFT VACANCY
This opportunity is open to highly experienced Occupational Therapists employed by the Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust service. The expectation is that you will work 18.75hrs a week in the Frailty Band 7 OT role and the remainder of your time in your current role.
The Frailty service is a planned proactive service maintaining the health and wellbeing of people living with frailty.
The post holder will work as part of a multi disciplinary team in a patient facing role across the Falmouth and Penryn Integrated Neighbourhood Team (INT), to help improve patient outcomes, ensure better access to healthcare and support the INT to manage their most vulnerable and complex patients. The role is pivotal to improving the quality of care and operational efficiencies so requires motivation and passion to deliver excellent services ‘at pace’.
We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.
We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you’ll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.
Over 5,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.
We work in people’s homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 10 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.
Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increase the numbers of people who use out services.
