Job overview
We're delighted to offer a brand-new 30-hour Band 6 Speech and Language Therapist opportunity within our welcoming Harrow Adult Community Speech and Language Therapy (SALT) Service.
In May 2024, our team achieved Quality Development Unit (QDU) status, recognising our commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centred care and continuous service improvement.
In this role, you'll provide domiciliary and outpatient assessment and therapy for adults with dysphagia and communication difficulties, including those with acquired and progressive neurological conditions. You'll manage a varied specialist caseload, contribute to service development projects, and support the supervision and development of junior colleagues.
Based across Honeypot Lane Health Centre and Alexandra Avenue Health Centre, you'll work within a supportive multidisciplinary team with strong links to our Acute Speech and Language Therapy Service, Harrow Dietetics Service and wider Rehabilitation Team, offering excellent opportunities for collaboration and professional development.
