Bank Clinical Specialist OT

The Transforming Care Autism Team are a specialist assessment and consultation multidisciplinary team who work alongside SPFT colleagues to support discharges and avoid admissions for autistic young people and adults. We have some additional short term funding and we are looking for B6 or B7 OTs who have some formal sensory integration training or who have completed SPFT in-house sensory training and have significant experience of considering the sensory needs of individuals with complex presentations and who are interested in working with autistic young people and/or adults who are inpatient or at risk of admission using neuroaffirmative approaches., The OTs within the team provide specialist assessments such as sensory and functional assessments in order to support a holistic formulation of how neurodiversity may be contributing to presenting risks. Individual interventions may be completed with individuals to collaboratively understand their neurodiversity and make recommendations for self-strategies and reasonable adjustments required.
