Full Job Description

The role of a Band 3 Rehabilitation Assistant within our team includes working with patients to provide rehabilitation and discharge planning alongside a team of other Rehabilitation Assistants and qualified physio- and occupational therapists. This is alongside administrative tasks and working with the rest of the therapy team to cover the priorities of the ward as needed. We treat patients on an individual needs basis by identifying what they need to work on prior to discharge from hospital and supporting with referrals to community services when they have left hospital. Our core hours are Monday to Friday and you will be expected to work some weekends.

Rehabilitation can be a challenging time as a patient, but as a therapy team, we get the exciting opportunity of helping someone regain their independence. Are you currently working as a Rehabilitation Assistant and want to further your career and development? If so we would love for you to take this opportunity to work with us to provide high quality inpatient rehabilitation and discharge planning in the Swindon Intermediate Care Centre (SWICC).

"Our STAR values - Service, Teamwork, Ambition and Respect - are a golden thread running through everything we do. These values serve as a guiding principle, driving us towards our vision of delivering great joined up services to our local community. Whether at home, in the community, or within the hospital, our goal is to empower individuals to lead independent and healthier lives."
