A great opportunity has arisen for a part time Band 6 OT to join the Durham & Darlington IPBS team, working 25 hours a week (this can be flexible as to how this is organised). The team is based at the Holly Unit at West Park Hospital in Darlington.

The Durham and Darlington Intensive Positive Behaviour Support team work with young people that have a learning disability, and their families, to provide 12-18 weeks high intensity, high fidelity behavioural support following the positive behaviour support (PBS) framework; reducing behaviours of concern and enhancing quality of life.
