About the Role
We are looking for an enthusiastic and passionate candidate to join the department of Older People’s Services at Ipswich Hospital, part of East Suffolk and North East Essex Foundation as a specialist physiotherapist in frailty.
There has never been a more exciting time to join our team and work with us to develop services to meet the needs of our older population, enabling them to age well and with dignity in an ever-changing landscape. We don’t believe in always doing the same things and we welcome individuals who can bring new ideas and thoughts to the table.
The integrated pathways division has the older people’s services, therapies and community services for Ipswich and East Suffolk sitting within the same division allowing acute geriatric services to work seamlessly with community services and allows the flexibility to meet patient needs wherever they may be.
Responsibilities
- Provide specialist assessment and treatment of patients with diverse and complex presentations within the integrated frailty service.
- Provide an evidence-based frailty physiotherapy service that adheres to CSP, HCPC and CQC clinical and quality standards.
- Ensure, as far as is reasonably practical, the safety of the patients in your care.
- Contribute to the supervision and assist in the development of junior physiotherapists, non-qualified staff, and students.
- Contribute to the development of the integrated frailty service and undertake audit of both clinical practice and processes to increase efficiency and effectiveness.
- Demonstrate commitment to continuous professional development.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Working Hours
Monday-Friday working hours with a future plan of likely becoming a 7-day service in the future.
