There has never been a more exciting time to join the ISCAN (Integrated Service for Children with Additional Needs) team.
Our organisation recognises the value and contribution Allied Health Professionals make to the NHS as the third largest workforce. As such, Tameside and Glossop ICFT are taking part in the national AHP workforce supply project. This project seeks to support the professional development and growth of this workforce to meet the continually evolving needs of the populations these highly skilled practitioners serve. It could not be a better time to join our organisation and be a part of the exciting future ahead.
The service provides community based occupational therapy to children with additional and complex health needs, working closely with other professionals involved in the child’s care. We are part of a multi-agency team, which includes physiotherapists, speech and language therapists, and nurses; providing specialist services to children and young people 0-19 years of age, which enables plenty of scope for integrated working. Within occupational therapy we have a number of care pathways; there are opportunities to work with children with moderate to complex physical needs as well children referred with developmental and/or neurodevelopmental conditions, such as, DCD, ASD, and ADHD. We invite applicants who would like to work across all areas as well as those who have a particular field of interest. There will be an opportunity for all staff to be involved with the progression of universal and targeted levels of intervention, including the development of advice and training to educational settings.
