Hackney - OT / Physiotherapist - Reablement Team £34.34

Hackney, London | £34.34 per hour

Are you an experienced Occupational Therapist/Physio with a passion for helping people regain their independence? Join an exciting new Reablement at Home pilot service with the London Borough of Hackney and play a key role in transforming adult social care.

This innovative therapy-led service is designed to support adults in achieving person-centred goals within their own homes, promoting independence, reducing reliance on long-term care, and facilitating safe, effective hospital discharges.

As an Occupational Therapist, you will be responsible for delivering high-quality, strengths-based reablement interventions that empower individuals to regain confidence and independence in daily living.

Working closely with the Integrated Discharge Service, you will assess, monitor, and review therapy-led reablement programmes, ensuring service users achieve agreed outcomes within a short-term intervention, typically lasting up to six weeks.

You will be based at the Hackney Service Centre, with regular home visits across the borough.

• Develop and implement person-centred Reablement Therapy Plans.
• Identify meaningful goals and outcomes that maximise independence.
• Monitor progress and review therapy interventions throughout the reablement period.
• Work collaboratively with Reablement Support Workers, Occupational Therapy Assistants, Senior Practitioners and Adult Social Care teams.
• Provide professional advice and guidance to reablement providers.
• Promote a "doing with" rather than "doing for" approach, encouraging service users to regain everyday living skills.
• Support safe hospital discharge and prevent unnecessary long-term care packages.
• Complete accurate documentation and contribute to outcome-focused reviews.

The Reablement at Home service offers up to six weeks of intensive, therapy-led support to adults eligible for reablement services.

The aim is to:

• Enable people to live as independently as possible.
• Reduce dependency on ongoing care services.
• Support safe and timely hospital discharges.
• Improve quality of life through strengths-based interventions.
• Encourage participation in community resources and activities.
• Deliver care closer to home, at the right time and in the right way.

Service users may receive up to four visits per day, seven days a week, with support reducing as independence improves.

• Degree or Diploma in Occupational Therapy.
• HCPC Registration.
• Previous experience within Adult Social Care or Community Occupational Therapy.
• Experience delivering reablement or rehabilitation services.
• Strong assessment and goal-setting skills.
• Excellent communication and multidisciplinary working abilities.
