Job summary
Join our dynamic Community Therapy Team and make a real impact within a service designed to be responsive, safe, effective and compassionate. Rooted in the heart of the local community, our model ensures patients receive care that truly reflects their needs through a clear point of access, proactive case management and coproduction with service users. Working as part of an integrated team, you will contribute to a joinedup approach that collaborates with GP practices, multidisciplinary colleagues and community partners to deliver outstanding care.
In this role, you will independently assess and manage your own varied caseload, including complex presentations, while maintaining highquality clinical records as an autonomous practitioner. You will support senior staff by supervising junior colleagues, assistants and students, and help with the daytoday running of the service-including deputising for the Team Leader when needed. You will play an active part in service development, ensuring the team continues to deliver efficient, effective therapy provision. Working across the locality, you will contribute to interdisciplinary learning and practice, building shared skills through an agreed competency framework. This role also offers the opportunity to develop and utilise specialist therapy expertise within a five or sevenday service rota, enabling you to grow professionally while delivering care that truly matters.
This is a part time role for 3 days per week (22.5 hours)

Main duties, tasks & skills required
The Clinical Therapist will manage a diverse caseload, using strong clinical reasoning to identify patient needs, triage effectively, and liaise or refer to the most appropriate services. You will provide specialist assessment and evidence based treatment for patients with acute or chronic conditions, including complex multisystem presentations such as neurological, respiratory, orthopaedic, age-related deterioration and palliative needs.
You will develop personalised, outcome focused care plans in partnership with patients, carers and relevant professionals, ensuring clear communication and seamless pathways of care. Goals and interventions will be negotiated collaboratively and measured where appropriate using recognised outcome tools.
Treatment programmes may be delivered directly or delegated to Support Workers or multidisciplinary colleagues, with you providing the necessary guidance and oversight. A key part of the role includes facilitating safe, timely discharge by assessing risk, completing home assessments, arranging equipment, and offering tailored advice to patients and carers.
