An interesting and challenging opportunity has arisen based at Chalmers Hospital Banff.


We are looking for an experienced, motivated and enthusiastic Occupational Therapist to be based at Chalmers Hospital in Banff, and cover to Turriff Community Hospital as required.  This post is fixed term to cover maternity leave.

The Occupational Therapy team is part of a well-established Multi-Disciplinary Team in Banff and the post holder will provide full OT assessment and treatment for hospital patients, community rehabilitation, and also respond to urgent assessment in the community to prevent hospital admission. Multi-disciplinary and multi-agency working is essential for seamless community care, thus the post holder will require excellent communication and organisational skills.

The post holder will provide clinical supervision and support to a Band 5 OT, as well as supervision and allocation of work to an OT support worker.  Training of students is an integral part of the job, as is service development within the area and the Health and Social Care Partnership Teams.


A valid UK driving licence and a car available for business use is essential for this role, and experience in caseload management and physical rehabilitation in the community is desirable.


We offer regular support, supervision, CPD and development opportunities in line with Turas personal development plan.


'There will be an expectation to provide services over 7 days, including weekends, public holidays and extended hours, where required, to meet the need of services'
