The Shaftesbury Clinic holds 52 beds within 4 wards including a male MSU a male LSU, a women’s MSU and the newly developed unit for those with intellectual disabilities and autism. This Band 7 role has been created to form part of the forensic OT leadership team, providing clinical guidance and support to a team of Occupational therapists, technical instructors, clinical exercise therapists and activity support workers. We are fortunate to have a sizeable OT team of 17 staff, allowing a broad service offering to our patient group.
The team offer individual and group interventions to support physical and mental health as part of our patient’s recovery journeys.

Both pathways are closely supported by the Deputy Head of therapies for the forensic service line.
