We are seeking an enthusiastic occupational therapist to join our Unplanned Care team delivering care to patients closer to home and preventing unnecessary hospital admission in west Hertfordshire.

DTA supports the discharge of patients from acute and community hospitals to assess and manage rehabilitation/therapy needs to facilitate a safe discharge from hospital when the patient is medically well enough to go home. The pathway is delivered in conjunction with Adult Social Care to support the patient’s reablement.
