Job summary

Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust (CLCH) delivers the Stroke and General community in-patient rehabilitation service for Barnet as well as offering some step-down and non-weight-bearing beds across the wards.

The units provide a comprehensive community-based step-down facility that supports patients' rehabilitation and recovery in a community setting, with an active therapy programme.

Ongoing assessments for those patients who are medically optimised but who require further assessments (typically Continuing Healthcare (CHC) assessments) outside of the acute setting in relation to their health and social needs and future living arrangements are also undertaken where necessary. All run a 24/7 service with nurses always present and doctors/therapists available in core hours.

Main duties of the job

The Speciality Doctor will work within a multi-disciplinary team of healthcare professionals including nursing staff, pharmacists, allied health professionals and medical staff. You will undertake a range of essential routine tasks under the supervision and delegated authority of the relevant senior doctor in charge of the clinical area in which you are employed.
