Job description

 

Your career in healthcare made personal

 

At Medibank we’ve recently unified our health services under one brand – Amplar Health. 

 

With over 1000 employees, our nurses, GPs and other amazing allied health professionals our focus is on improving healthcare experiences and championing greater access, choice, and control for people in Australia when it comes to managing their health. 

 

The Opportunity 

We are looking for an experienced Occupational Therapist to join our team, working in Central Coast NSW. This is a permanent part or full time position.

As a mobile clinician, you will be providing care to Australian’s in the comfort of their home. This is a great opportunity for you to have variety in your caseload which will allow you to utilise your skills and grow as a health professional with the continue clinical support and mentoring from our senior clinicians. 

 

In the Community you will support:

  • Home Care Package clients: supporting clients to remain independent at home, through home assessments; equipment prescriptions and home modifications.
  • Rehab in the home program: focusing on post orthopaedic surgery

    • Design and facilitate group programs
    • Complete individual sessions with residents
  • Facilitate manual handling
  • Prescribe equipment

 

About you

As a new grad or experienced clinician, you love to make a difference in the lives of Australians. Fully AHPRA registered, ideally you will have a minimum 2 years’ experience in a Community or Aged Care setting and willing to grow your skills across both.  As a mobile Occupational Therapist, you will need to be comfortable travelling to our clients located across the central coast region and as such provide your own vehicle (kilometre reimbursement provided for this travel).
