The community rehabilitation teams will provide support for people with complex care needs related to psychosis and (where relevant) co-existing substance use and physical health problems. With a multidisciplinary and whole-team approach, these services will have an emphasis on delivering individualised and recovery-focussed care for people.

Importantly, our care will be provided close to their communities, social networks and homes, enabling people to transition away from restrictive settings. Therefore, the teams will be key partners in supporting the flow of patients from inpatient to supported and independent accommodations. 

With the team expansion, this will be a perfect opportunity for the successful applicant to contribute, make a difference and shape community occupational therapy in the rehabilitation service, to make it more flexible, responsive and accessible. This role will offer you a chance not only develop your clinical skills but also give you opportunity to contribute to service development
