We think setting SMART goals is really important for the patients we are rehabilitating so that’s something you’ll be involved in too.
We are an integrated team so it’s likely that you’ll be spending time with the Occupational Therapists and Therapy Assistants in your area of work. Our Therapy Assistants are the perfect people to continue any exercise programmes you have put into place.
