Job description

The Community based Musculoskeletal (MSK) Service has an exciting opportunity to recruit a Band 6 MSK physiotherapist, for a fixed term of 12 months, ...

You

Will be responsible for

  • Your own independent caseload and undertaking MSK assessment of patients with a wide range of health needs, who may have additional complex and multiple pathologies.
  • Identifying patient needs, agreeing goals, and providing appropriate therapy interventions.
  • Keeping the patient at the centre of care, ensuring the patient is engaged in a shared decision-making approach.
  • Liaising with the wider MSK team.

You will be based in one or more hub sites across the city, working alongside more senior physiotherapy staff. It is essential that you are flexible and prepared to travel to different venues according to the needs of the service.

This is a busy, fast paced environment to work in, but we will support your personal and professional development with weekly senior mentorship. We have a strong emphasis on clinical supervision and in-service training. The MSK service is actively involved in research, having participated and run clinical trials. The service continues to explore extended hours provision; however, the service currently runs Monday to Friday.

Due to this, it is essential that applicants can travel independently across the city, via public transport, or you have access to a suitable vehicle for business purposes. If necessary, adjustments can be considered in accordance with the Equality Act 2010.

Adverts will close early where the maximum number of applicants is reached.

Please review the job description and person specification attached in the supporting documents section for full requirements of the role.
