Advanced Practitioner (AP) in Rehabilitation
We are seeking a dynamic, patient-focused Advanced Practitioner (AP) with a specialist interest in rehabilitation to join the MDT on Oxford and Cambridge Ward at Herts & Essex Hospital.
Oxford and Cambridge Ward is a specialist rehabilitation unit providing assessment, treatment and rehabilitation for patients with complex needs, including frailty, deconditioning, falls and long-term conditions. The ward supports patients to maximise independence and achieve rehabilitation goals, enabling safe and timely discharge.
Working closely with the Ward Leadership Team and multidisciplinary colleagues, you will provide expert clinical leadership, deliver high-quality patient-centred care, support clinical decision-making, and contribute to service development and quality improvement. The role includes collaborating with medical teams to assess, review and manage patients, developing clear management plans and utilising advanced clinical skills to support assessment, diagnosis and treatment.
This is an exciting opportunity to support the ongoing development of rehabilitation services within HCT. The post holder may occasionally provide support across other inpatient rehabilitation units, including QVM Hospital and Danesbury Neurological Centre, ensuring consistent, high-quality care across the service.
