We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Physiotherapist to join our team, delivering assessment and treatment to patients within the community, including their own homes and care settings across North Cornwall. You will work closely with your colleagues in the Integrated Neighbourhood Teams to support patients’ independence, recovery, and wellbeing.
This post is 0.5 Homefirst and 0.5 Community Rehabilitation Team. The vision is that this new post will improve patient experience and continuity of care by the same Physiotherapist being able to see the patient through their episode of care. The teams are based in the same office at Carew House and work closely together.
Key responsibilities include:
Providing specialist physiotherapist assessment and interventions tailored to patients’ individual needs.
Working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team to ensure effective and timely care.
Supervising and supporting junior staff and contributing to their development within the service.
This is an excellent opportunity to make a meaningful difference within a supportive and integrated community team.
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.
