Our Coventry Community Neuro and Stroke Rehab Services (CINSS) are looking for a highly motivated Physiotherapist to join their interdisciplinary team.

The service is a community based interdisciplinary therapy team, who support the timely discharge of patients from hospital. Our patients have ongoing rehabilitation or neuro management needs following a new or worsening presentation of a neurological condition, both stroke, and non-stroke.

The team work collaboratively with acute services, rehab and community networks and third sector services to deliver a patient-centred; goal focused approach to rehabilitation. Our team is an integral part of the stroke pathway, in reaching into both stroke and in-patient rehab settings.

This post will offer you the opportunity to consolidate and develop neurological and wider clinical skills. Your skills and experience will be integral to our quality improvement and service developments.

As a service we are committed to supporting continuous development of clinical skills through joint working, access to a comprehensive in-house training program, and opportunities to attend both, internal and external courses.

You will be expected to work independently and effectively within the Community Stroke and Integrated Neuro Rehab Service to ensure safe and effective management of these patients in the community. You will be able to prioritise your workload and time effectively to support an integrated approach.

You will be required to be part of the Interdisciplinary team, supporting patients to meet their goals in a community setting.
