We are looking to recruit a Band 5 Occupational Therapist in the Orthopaedic Therapy Team at York Hospital.
We are seeking a motivated and proactive individual with a passion for Occupational Therapy. This post would suit a registered practitioner looking to develop specialist skills and knowledge in the area of Orthopaedics.
We are a welcoming, supportive team and are looking for someone who is keen to develop and promote Occupational Therapy in the trust.
We are proud to offer our Multi-Professional Preceptorship Programme to all newly registered practitioners. This is a wonderful opportunity to welcome you into your new team and our Trust, providing you with support and guidance as you develop in confidence and competence.
