Job description

This is a fixed term post of 15 months.

The shift pattern for this post is Mon-Friday.

NHSGGC has successfully obtained Scottish Government funding to develop a three year AHP Long Covid Service, which will see the development of a team of highly skilled Advanced Practice Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists. In the first instance funding is confirmed for 15 months but it is anticipated this will be extended. The AHP Team will comprise 1wte band 8A AHP Team lead, 7.5wte Advanced Practice AHPs, associated HCSW (these posts) and administration staff providing a GGC wide service to all General Practices within the geographical area as well as Secondary Care Services who have managed long covid patients in the absence of this team.

These Health Care Support Worker posts will be of interest to people who have experience of working within a health or social care environment where the key aim is to maximise service user independence. Ideally you will have a SVQ Level III certificate (or equivalent) or higher level qualification appropriate to level of clinical work. This post requires the ability to work without direct supervision while delivering on prescribed treatment plans. This service will provide both physical rehabilitation and psychological interventions. Therefore an interest in supporting service users to improve their overall health and wellbeing is essential.

Evidence of ability to work as a team player with good communication skills are both essential for this post.
