Occupational Therapist - Band 6

Full time

Be a part of our team at Coventry CMHT, we have vacancies for Band 6 Occupational therapists to join our team.  We are going through transformational changes within our community teams which has been an exiting time for the development of our team. 

The mental health occupational therapist is a core part of the community mental health team who aim to improve health and wellbeing through enabling participation in occupation (the activities, roles and routines of everyday life).

Occupational therapists recognise that engagement in meaningful occupation can promote good mental health, assist recovery and help people achieve personalised outcomes such as being able to care for themselves, engage in work and leisure activities, and participate within the community.
