Job Description

Job summary
Are you a passionate and motivated Physiotherapist looking to make a real difference to the lives of people living with cardiac conditions?

We are seeking an enthusiastic Community Cardiac Rehabilitation Physiotherapist to join our established and supportive Cardiac Rehabilitation Team. This is an exciting opportunity to lead and deliver high-quality, evidence-based cardiac rehabilitation programmes, supporting patients to improve their health, wellbeing and quality of life following a cardiac event or diagnosis.

As an autonomous practitioner, you will manage your own caseload of patients with a range of cardiac conditions, providing specialist assessment, treatment, exercise prescription, education and ongoing support. Working alongside a multidisciplinary team, you will play a key role in helping patients achieve their rehabilitation goals and develop the confidence and skills to manage their long-term health.

Main duties of the job
Hold responsibility for the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of cardiac rehabilitation interventions for patients with a variety of cardiac conditions. Lead and deliver cardiac rehabilitation exercise programmes in both community and clinical settings. Support the provision and continued development of a high-quality, patient-focused and evidence-based cardiac rehabilitation service. Work in line with the British Association for Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation (BACPR) Standards and Core Components. Collaborate with colleagues across the multidisciplinary team to optimise patient outcomes and promote health and wellbeing. Provide education, advice and support to patients and their families, encouraging self-management and informed decision-making. Adopt a flexible, professional and dynamic approach to service delivery, supporting the wider cardiac rehabilitation service as required.

About us
We're an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people's physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.

We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.

Over 5,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 10 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increase the numbers of people who use out services.
