Looking for a new opportunity to develop your skills in rehabilitation?

Want to live in the youngest city in Europe? Truly cosmopolitan with a diverse population of over 1.1 million, Birmingham has the largest open space in Europe and fantastic network links to the rest of the UK.

Look no further, we have an exciting opportunity for you to join our Early Intervention Community Team within Birmingham Community Health Care NHS Foundation Trust, the largest community trust in the country.

Part of a wider Early Intervention programme, which has delivered in the last 12 months: 77,000 fewer acute bed days used, 19,000 fewer non-acute bed days and people spend 11.5 fewer days in the system. Overall having an impact of £25.8 million saved for Birmingham to reinvest in Health and Social Care developments.

Six health and social care organisations joined forces in the region to deliver this truly integrated service. Alongside BCHC, other partners include Birmingham City Council, University Hospitals Birmingham, Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust, Birmingham and Solihull CCG and Sandwell and West Birmingham CCG.

You will be joining a community team in the midst of one of the largest Health and Social Care transformations in the country, with exciting changes and developments, preventing avoidable hospital admissions, premature admission to long‑term residential care and facilitating early hospital discharge, plus the added bonus of Birmingham being a fantastic place to work and live.

A real opportunity to work within the self‑motivated and aspirational MDT daily, we are currently looking for someone to dynamically lead and promote a culture of home first rehabilitation, so the people of Birmingham are treated in the right place at the right time, evidenced by clinical and performance outcomes. Working multi‑professionally, completing assessments and interventions, whilst ensuring the delivery of high quality intervention to patients within their own homes and other community settings.
