• Deliver timely Physiotherapy assessment and intervention 
• Support the implementation and evaluation of innovative rehabilitation pathways designed to promote earlier intervention from therapy services.
• Contribute to the collection and analysis of outcome measures that demonstrate the impact of therapy on patient recovery, independence, and length of stay.
• Facilitate person-centred rehabilitation programmes that focus on individual strengths, goals, and meaningful activity.

• Collaborate with MDT to identify opportunities for service improvement and enhanced patient flow.
• Support patients and families in planning for discharge and ongoing rehabilitation needs.
