Full job description

Band 6 Specialist Occupational Therapist - Home 1st Therapy Service

Join Home 1st interdisciplinary team and help people regain independence where it matters most – at home.

Home 1st is a dynamic community based rehabilitation service focused on promoting independence, preventing unnecessary hospital admissions, and reducing hospital length of stay. We work across a range of settings including patients’ homes, inpatient units, hospitals, and community venues.

You will be part of a supportive multidisciplinary team, working alongside physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses, and rehabilitation support workers to deliver high-quality, patient-centred care.

As a Band 6 Specialist Occupational Therapist, you will manage your own caseload and deliver evidence‑based, personalised rehabilitation. You’ll support people with a wide range of conditions, including post‑surgical recovery, post‑critical care rehab, frailty and falls, stroke and neurological conditions, COPD and respiratory issues, dementia, musculoskeletal needs, and palliative care. The role offers the chance to build broad clinical experience and a strong professional foundation.

You will assess, plan, and deliver individualised treatment programmes, working autonomously with support from experienced clinicians and the wider MDT. You’ll help maintain a high‑quality, efficient therapy service and uphold CNWL values of compassion, respect, empowerment, and partnership. Responsibilities include providing OT assessments, delivering person‑centred rehabilitation, working flexibly across Home 1st pathways, supporting admission avoidance and early supported discharge, collaborating effectively with multidisciplinary teams and external agencies, acting as a Trusted Assessor, and contributing to integrated pathway development.

Development & Support

We are committed to your professional development. You will:
Receive regular supervision from senior clinicians
Work closely with clinical leads to develop your clinical, practice educator, and professional skills
Participate in training, competency development, and observed practice
Be encouraged to grow as both a clinician and a future clinical educator

Why Join Us?

Varied and rewarding clinical experience across community and inpatient settings
Strong multidisciplinary teamwork
Structured support and career development pathways
Opportunity to make a real impact on patient independence and quality of life

Communicate effectively using appropriate verbal and non‑verbal methods, including with patients who have communication difficulties.
Manage clinical risk and ensure safe, competent use of equipment.
Work collaboratively with the multidisciplinary team on discharge planning.
Maintain accurate, timely electronic patient records.

Professional Responsibilities

Adhere to HCPC and Royal College of Occupational Therapy standards.

Participate in supervision, appraisal, and in‑service training.
Evaluate and audit clinical practice with support from the Lead Occupational Therapist.
