Merton HARI Therapists will work as part of the wider Multidisciplinary Team (MDT), providing high-quality rehabilitation to the Merton population.
The post holder will support the rehabilitation of adults living with frailty and complex health needs, helping to optimise their independence, health, and wellbeing, and to prevent hospital admission or premature moves into care homes. We are strongly committed to the assessment and rehabilitation of patients living within the Merton community.
The post holder will have a key role within the team, working with patients, service users, and carers to provide highly specialist Physiotherapy assessments and treatment plans. They will support individuals to maintain or regain mobility, independence, and wellbeing within their own homes, setting goals and reviewing outcomes to reduce the need for long-term support.
The post holder will also provide clinical leadership within the locality, offering advice to Physiotherapists and the wider MDT. They will be responsible for the education and supervision of junior Physiotherapy staff, Assistant Practitioners, Rehabilitation Assistants, and Physiotherapy students.
We have a supportive culture that fosters mutual respect, and the post holder will play an important role in further developing and maintaining this culture.
