OTs have a huge impact in people's lives, but I don't need to tell you that as you get to see the impact every day. We've recently been awarded a 6 month project by a council that will let you have the impact while enjoying the freedom of working as an independent OT. 

 

This is the sort of opportunity that comes across very rarely. In addition to great pay, it's outside of IR35 and offers 2 days a week for 6 months.

 

You’ll be responsible for identifying and managing real entrapment risks in people’s homes and ensuring MHRA compliance. This is safety-critical work! In addition to all the standard stuff (HCPC, degree qualified, right to work etc.), successful OTs will have strong clinical reasoning and writing skills, understand the risk assessment process and ideally will have successfully carried out bed rail risk assessments before, and will know the MHRA guidance around it like the back of their hand, but we are offering training on the MHRA guidance if you've not done it recently. 

 

Our client is a council in the South East of England, so you will need a car to be able to travel around the county. The project starts in the first week of March. 

 

We're building a team of 10-12 OTs, so If you're interested in this, then please email a copy of your CV to alex@care4healthUK.com and if you have any OT friends who you think would also make great team members then please put them in touch with me as well.
