This is an exciting opportunity to learn new skills with a team of friendly and dedicated therapists who strive to provide the best possible care to patients who have had a stroke or other neurological disorder.

We are delighted to be able to offer patients the opportunity of assessment by the Therapy team for discharge over the weekend and bank Holidays and this post holder would be expected to participate in the weekend working rota.
