They are seeking an Occupational Therapist to work within their hospital wards. Suitable candidates will have a degree in Occupational Therapy (MSc pre-registration or BSc) and registration with HCPC.

You will be responsible for observing, recording and reporting patients’ involvement in 1:1s and groups. You will observe and monitor the wellbeing of patients ensuring that any unusual physical, mental or emotional occurrences are promptly referred to more senior staff and documented as appropriate.

You will be required to ensure the effective, timely and accurate updating of clinical records and computerised information systems.
