Main duties of the job
The Isle of Man is a self-governing jurisdiction with its own Government and national health service, independent from the UK. Serving a community of around 85,000, our Occupational Therapists enjoy manageable caseloads, supportive teams and the freedom to provide truly person-centred care. As a Band 6 Occupational Therapist within our Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Service, youll play a key role in helping patients recover from cardiac events or manage long-term respiratory conditions.

Youll independently manage a varied caseload, delivering both individual and group-based therapy sessions that may include stress and anxiety management, pacing, pulmonary rehabilitation and vocational rehabilitation, empowering patients to regain confidence, independence and wellbeing.
