Opening Paragraph:
An experienced Band 6 Acute Inpatient Physiotherapist is urgently required to join the team at the Royal London Hospital. This is a full-time locum position working 37.5 hours per week across 7 days. The role involves providing physiotherapy care for acute adult inpatients, with a focus on complex discharge planning, acute rehabilitation for patients with chronic diseases, and the management of neuro and respiratory conditions. The ideal candidate will have significant experience in acute adult inpatient settings and be skilled in managing acutely deteriorating patients.
Responsibilities:
The successful candidate will be responsible for assessing, diagnosing, and treating a wide range of acute adult inpatient cases, including those with complex discharge needs. You will provide physiotherapy for patients with chronic conditions, acute rehabilitation needs, and neuro-related conditions. A key aspect of the role will be managing acutely deteriorating patients, including the use of cough assist devices and tracheostomy management. You will be expected to conduct neuro assessments, provide treatment plans, and support respiratory management including acute Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV). You will also need to work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure the smooth and timely discharge of patients and develop effective rehabilitation strategies tailored to individual needs. The role demands high-level clinical reasoning, excellent communication skills, and the ability to work autonomously within a fast-paced hospital environment.
