Working alongside psychologists, creative therapists, prison officers and wider agencies, you'll help create a safer, healthier, more hopeful environment for patients -- and a stronger, more compassionate society beyond the prison gates.
Main duties of the job
As an Occupational Therapist you will play a central part in delivering high-quality, psychologically informed care within The Hive, a specialist Offender Personality Disorder (OPD) Pathway service at HMP Ranby. As an autonomous clinician, you will be responsible for assessing the occupational needs of service users with complex personality, trauma-related, and psychosocial difficulties, and for designing, implementing and evaluating individualised rehabilitation plans that promote independence, purpose, and functional living skills both within custody and in preparation for eventual community reintegration.
You role will involve conducting comprehensive specialist assessments, analysing complex information, and translating this into meaningful, realistic, and collaboratively agreed treatment goals. You will deliver a wide range of interventions--including structured activities, graded therapeutic groups, and 1:1 sessions--using sound clinical reasoning and evidence-based OT practice. A key responsibility is to adapt interventions responsively, taking account of fluctuating clinical presentations, motivational barriers, emotional distress, and the unique constraints of a secure environment.

More detail about the role
Our Senior Healthcare Support Workers (SHCSWs) form an essential and well-respected part of our healthcare teams across a number of dynamic settings; out in the community, in our acute hospitals or within our theatres teams to name just a few.
You will be a valued member of the team through our comprehensive training and induction programme and our commitment to learning and development will satisfy even the most ambitious person.
The South West Ambulatory Orthopaedic Centre (SWAOC) at Nightingale Exeter have an amazing opportunity for you to join our multidisciplinary team and be part of a fast-growing service.
The team at SWAOC are excited to be able to give patients a day surgery or short stay option for orthopaedic surgery which traditionally has meant an inpatient stay at an acute hospital.
SWAOC combines the best of the UKs established pathways in a single facility and although initially concentrating on hip and knee arthroplasty we have expanded the service to include foot and ankle surgery, soft tissue knee surgery and spinal surgery. We also complete pre-operative assessments and help run the non-sedated spinal and hip injections lists through diagnostics. We are also always looking to develop our service further and take on new challenges.
Our pathways are therapy and nurse combined so this is a fabulous opportunity for you to be part of something amazing.
It would be an advantage for applicants to have knowledge and clinical skills in an orthopaedic or day unit setting. This post is being offered on a permanent basis.
We are providing excellent and innovative care to our patients and are ready to expand our team to enable us to provide this same service for many more patients.
If you are as excited as we are to provide this amazing service to the patients from all over the South West then please submit your application by the closing date we look forward to welcoming you to our team!

The post holder will need to meet deadlines, collate data and maintain standards relating to administrative processes. They will need to be able to work within a team effectively and share work streams where appropriate.
The post holder will be expected to line manage others and will provide support and guidance for matters that are escalated to them by Clinical Services Administrators. The post holder will be expected to work without direct supervision and manage their own workload.
The post holder will be key in maintaining diaries and arranging meetings, taking formal minutes and keeping appropriate records on the most up to date templates. Their work is managed rather than supervised and they are accountable for their own actions - manager is available for reference but generally, they will manager their own workload.
