You will be working alongside our physiotherapy team, Occupational Therapist, Speech and Language Therapists and Neuropsychologist, ensuring goals and interventions set by our therapy team are met.

Working together with our Service Users you will help to devise a weekly planner which comprises of daily activities, therapy activities, outings, meal planning etc.
