At CLCH, we proudly serve as a beacon of compassionate community healthcare across 14 vibrant London boroughs — Barnet, Brent, Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham, Harrow, Hounslow, Kensington and Chelsea, Merton, Richmond, Wandsworth, Westminster, Hillingdon, Sutton, and Kingston — as well as Hertfordshire. We bring care closer to home, embracing the rich diversity of these communities with dedication and heart.

Recognised as a Good provider by the Care Quality Commission and celebrated among the top NHS employers, we are united by a shared passion: empowering our community health professionals to deliver care that truly makes a difference.

We are deeply committed to fostering an environment where every member of our team feels respected, valued, and inspired—a place where fairness, kindness, and inclusion blossom. Our culture is rooted in the principles of the NHS People Plan, Our NHS People Promise, and our own strategic Equality values and objectives, guiding us to create a truly supportive and inclusive workplace.

Together, we build a caring community where the warmth we show one another shines through in every life we touch.

The Home First Service supports the timely and safe discharge of patients from acute and urgent care settings, in line with national NHS priorities.

Working within a multidisciplinary team, the service provides rapid assessment and short-term, intensive interventions for patients with complex health and social care needs. The focus is on promoting independence, recovery and person-centred care within the community, helping individuals remain safely at home wherever possible.

As a Band 6 Occupational Therapist, you will manage a complex caseload, contribute to clinical decision-making, and play a key role in coordinating care within a fast-paced and dynamic environment.

The service works closely with acute trusts, primary care, community services across CLCH, and local authority social care teams to deliver integrated, high-quality care and improve patient outcomes.

The service operates 7 days a week, from 8:00am to 8:00pm, including bank holidays. Full-time staff are expected to work flexibly across a 7-day rota, including early, late and long-day shifts as required.
