Job Advert
This is a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiastic individual with an interest in gaining experience within paediatrics. We are currently looking to recruit to our combined child heath physiotherapy team. The post involves rotating annually between various in-patient and out-patient settings throughout Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire, including Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital (RACH) and the Child Development Teams.
Previous experience in working with children and young people is desirable but not essential. The successful candidate will be involved in the assessment and treatment of children of all ages with a wide variety of conditions including MSK, neurological, neuromuscular, rheumatology, orthopaedic, post-surgical, developmental, complex needs and respiratory. Support will be given by a team of experienced band 7 staff through close team working, formal and informal supervision in the context of a multi-disciplinary approach.
We would consider offering this post as a year-long secondment opportunity with the agreement of your current line manager.
As RACH is a teaching hospital and has a wide range of specialist services, some covering the whole of the North of Scotland, we offer excellent opportunities for personal and professional development. The successful candidate will be expected to participate in the respiratory on call rota with occasional weekend working.
If you would like any further information please call Irene Croal, Physiotherapy Team Lead on 01224 551583 or e-mail irene.croal@nhs.scot
