– Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams, including social workers, nurses, and therapists, to promote recovery and independence.
– Recommend and arrange equipment or home adaptations to enhance daily living and mobility.
– Deliver interventions based on recognised occupational therapy models and evidence-based practice.
– Travel across locality clusters to ensure consistent and joined-up service delivery.
– Maintain clear, accurate, and timely documentation in accordance with HCPC and council standards.
