Oxleas NHS Foundation is proud to be part of the South London Partnership (SLP) Forensic Programme along with South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust and South West London and St George’s NHS Trust as an NHS England New Model of Care. One of the aspirations of the SLP is to strengthen the interface between the forensic acute inpatient men’s service enabling a smooth transition and improved experience in South London by actively linking in with prison healthcare.

In response to this, Oxleas is seeking a Band 6 Clinical Occupational Therapist to be based at the Bracton Centre in Dartford, Kent. The Band 6 Clinical Occupational Therapist will provide occupational therapy assessment, treatment, and interventions individually and in groups with responsibility for providing clinical supervision of junior colleagues and students.
