Occupational Therapist

£25 - £50 per hour
Temporary
Position title
Occupational Therapist (Hand Therapy Preferred) - Hertfordshire - Hoddesdon, part or full time hours available.

Description
Shawe Physio is looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Occupational Therapist to join our growing multidisciplinary private practice in Hoddesdon.

We are a modern, evidence-based clinic with a strong reputation for high-quality rehabilitation, physiotherapy and wellbeing services. This is an exciting opportunity for an Occupational Therapist looking to develop or expand a private caseload within a collaborative healthcare environment.

We are particularly interested in clinicians with experience or a strong interest in:
  • Hand therapy
  • Upper limb rehabilitation
  • Post-operative rehabilitation
  • Splinting
  • Functional rehabilitation
  • Trauma and orthopaedic recovery
However, applicants with broader musculoskeletal or neurological rehabilitation experience are also encouraged to apply.

The Role
This is a flexible self-employed position designed around the successful applicant’s availability and clinical interests.

The successful clinician will be responsible for building and managing their own caseload whilst benefiting from strong cross-referral opportunities from our physiotherapy and rehabilitation team.

Potential caseload areas may include:
  • Hand and wrist rehabilitation
  • Tendon and nerve injury rehabilitation
  • Post-surgical rehabilitation
  • Fracture rehabilitation
  • Functional upper limb rehabilitation
  • Ergonomic and workplace assessments
  • Persistent pain management
  • Neurological rehabilitation
  • General musculoskeletal rehabilitation
Clinic days and hours are fully flexible and can be tailored around the successful applicant’s availability and goals.

Why work with us?
Shawe Physio was founded off the back of Michael Shawe’s frustrations with working in both the NHS and the Private sector as a Physiotherapist. In the NHS he found he was unable to give his patients the standard of care they deserved due to short appointment times and limited numbers of appointments available to patients, as well as patients having to wait a very long time to see clinicians.

In the private sector he found that many practices were overly revenue focused, encouraging practitioners to sell packages of care rather than treat the cause as efficiently as possible.

Michael wanted instead to form a practice that focused on treating patients how he himself wished to be treated - by always putting the patients’ interests’ firsts, focusing on true care that educated and empowered patients and always aimed to treat the cause of the issue not just the symptoms. His approach focuses on a mixed stance of manual and exercise therapy with the best current evidence-based treatments in mind.

Since opening Shawe Physio in 2015, the clinic has grown into an expert team of clinicians, with MSK base qualifications, individual specialisms and mountains of great experience.

Thanks to all the great members of our team, Shawe Physio has become an exceptional place to work, with outstanding patient reviews and unparalleled customer experience.

If you’re looking for an opportunity to fully make the most of your profession, please contact us for more information.

Responsibilities
Independently responsible for clinical caseload and insurance company reporting.

We provide an admin team to support with insurance company invoicing, payment handling and rebooking patients.

This is an exciting opportunity for either:
  • A driven newer qualified clinician looking to build their own caseload within a supportive and established clinic environment, or
  • An experienced OT with an existing patient base seeking excellent facilities, admin support, and strong cross-referral opportunities.
Qualifications
  • BSc (Hons) Occupational Therapy
  • Be HCPC registered
  • Hold appropriate professional liability insurance
  • Have the right to work in the UK
  • Be confident managing their own caseload
  • Demonstrate excellent communication and clinical reasoning skills
Desirable:
  • Experience in hand therapy or upper limb rehabilitation
  • Splinting experience
  • Experience working within private practice, orthopaedics, trauma or MSK settings
Job Benefits
You will benefit from:
  • 50% revenue split self-employed role
  • Flexible working schedule
  • Full reception and administration support
  • Online booking system
  • Marketing and social media promotion
  • Cross-referrals from our physiotherapy and rehabilitation team
  • Card payment and invoicing support
