and the new Novak House building?
If this is you, we will be
thrilled and excited to hear from you!!
We
have a vacancy with flexible working hours options for a Physiotherapist for
our developing services. This is an exciting opportunity for an autonomous,
highly motivated, and dynamic Physiotherapist to work within St Barnabas
Community Services in the South East of Lincolnshire. You will work within a
supportive Multi-Disciplinary Team, delivering Palliative Rehabilitation to
patients with a range of complex symptom management needs. You will have a vital
role in supporting our patients to achieve their goals, and support symptom
management. You will work holistically, bringing knowledge from a broad base of
experience and skills.
The
successful candidate will have strong empathy, communication, and inter-personal
skills, with an ability to work well with the MDT team. You will work

re-open the wellbeing hubs, offering face to face appointments, you will have

services that we offer.

team, exploring the service and skills we offer, extending links to other teams
with plans to integrate working further. Working flexibly to the service needs
is essential due to the areas we cover and people we support. Previous
palliative care experience is desirable but not essential, and we welcome
applications from those willing to develop in this rewarding field of care.
