Static Physiotherapist - Elderly Medical Team

The integrated Rehabilitation Service, consisting of Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy services, is looking for an enthusiastic Physiotherapist who wishes to develop their clinical skills in a dynamic and supportive environment.

The successful candidate will be based within the Elderly rehab team and the role will involve delivering high quality assessment, treatment and advice for patients within our acute hospital. You will manage patients with diverse and often complex needs whilst working as part of a supportive team.

This role will include weekend working as part of an agreed rota and respiratory on-call when all competencies are passed.

As a senior member of the multidisciplinary team, you will play a key role in ensuring the smooth and effective delivery of the Physiotherapy services in conjunction with your colleagues within the Rehabilitation Service. You will manage your own caseload independently, ensuring safe and seamless transfer of patients through their journey in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

You will have the opportunity to develop your management and teaching skills by leading on in-service training, on call training sessions, supervision with Physiotherapists and mentoring of students.

Strong communication skills are essential, as you will liaise closely with patients, carers and colleagues across the multidisciplinary team, acting as an advocate to safeguard patient well being and promote a positive experience.

br>There’s never been a more exciting time to join TeamQEH. We’re working on a once in a generation opportunity to build a new state-of-the-art hospital and we are also carrying out on one of the biggest pieces of digital transformation work we’ve ever undertaken.

Our new electronic patient record (EPR) will replace paper-based patient records from 2026 and will lead to better, safer, joined-up care at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital and beyond.

At The QEH we provide a comprehensive range of specialist, acute, obstetrics and community-based services to around 331,000 people across west and north Norfolk, North Cambs and South Lincs.

We are an ambitious organisation that upholds our values of kindness, wellness and fairness. We strive for continuous quality improvement, recently demonstrated in our 2024 CQC maternity inspection rating our services as ‘Good’, and we are proud to be a place to learn and grow through recognised learning and apprenticeships.

We recognise and reward our 4,000 staff and volunteers, priding ourselves on a community atmosphere and positive team spirit. We have approx. 530 beds across 33 wards and have newly built education and training facilities, a range of modern award-winning centres alongside a talented team of people ready to give you a warm welcome.

We love working here and think you will too.
