FIXED TERM FOR 1 YEAR
We are looking for someone to join our Team as a Physiotherapy Support Worker. We would welcome applications from those with relevant experience and a keen interest to work with children, young people and their families with a focus on rehabilitation. Previous experience working with children and young people would be an advantage. The age of the population we see means that experience working with children and young people in healthcare settings is beneficial but not essential. This is an opportunity to work alongside experienced physiotherapists, the wider multi-disciplinary team as well as partner organisations contributing to the delivery of rehabilitation in partnership with families, children and young people.
You will join a forward-thinking physiotherapy team based in RYCHP Edinburgh and work across a number of clinical areas supporting physiotherapy services which may include admin tasks.
As a service we support and encourage continuing professional development and encourage all staff to use the PDP and appraisal to support life long learning.
We would encourage anyone who is interested to get in touch and come for a visit as you may find this is the post you have been looking for!
