About The Role

As an Occupational Therapist working with Care Dorset you have the opportunity of working with the people we support to truly enhance their lives, increase their confidence and improve their wellbeing. You will play a vital role in the delivery of therapy input to the people we support in our community-based services. Your focus will be on enabling independence and improving quality of life through tailored occupational therapy interventions. You will provide outcome-focused assessments, deliver evidence-based therapeutic plans, and contribute to the ongoing development of a person-centred, strengths-based service aligned with the Care Act (2014).

Key Responsibilities:

1. Assessment and Intervention
Deliver timely, person-centred Occupational Therapy assessments and interventions to adults with physical disabilities and age-related conditions within the bedded reablement settings.
Set, monitor, and review SMART goals in partnership with individuals, focusing on regaining or maintaining independence.

2. Case Management
Manage a diverse caseload, including complex cases requiring advanced clinical reasoning, while ensuring safe, effective, and goal-oriented outcomes.
Collaborate closely with multi-disciplinary teams to address holistic needs and promote integrated care planning.

3. Service Delivery
Provide a high-quality Occupational Therapy service in accordance with national legislation, local policies, and professional standards.
Champion a reablement approach through the provision of specialist equipment, functional adaptations, and assistive techniques.

4. Team Support and Development
Support and mentor our Reablement Officer (ROs) through hands-on coaching, informal training, and joint interventions.
Guide and collaborate with Reablement Assistants (RAs) in goal-setting, intervention planning, and progress reviews, promoting a learning culture.

5. Consultation and Advocacy
Act as a specialist resource to promote the effective use of equipment and adaptations to maximise independence, reduce reliance on care services, and prevent hospital admissions.
Provide consultative input to colleagues, individuals, carers, and external partners as needed.

6. Communication and Documentation

Maintain accurate, timely, and professional records using the Nourish electronic recording system.
Engage in clear and effective communication with individuals, families, carers, and partner organisations to ensure coordinated support.

7. Professional Development and Team Contribution

Participate in continuous professional development, including training, reflective supervision, and practice improvement initiatives. Actively contribute to team meetings, case reviews, and multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings.

8. Operational Contribution

Attend and engage in weekly full caseload reviews.
Represent Care Dorset in inter-agency forums and external meetings as required.
Undertake other responsibilities as delegated by the Home Manager to support service delivery.
