We make health happen.

We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated pelvic health physiotherapist able to undertake all aspects of clinical duties as an autonomous practitioner. You will provide a client-centred and evidence-based service to adults, managing a mixture of male and female outpatients with varied pelvic health conditions. Referrals are received from consultants, insurance companies, GP clinics, and other external routes including self-referrals.

You will be primarily responsible for providing a pre- and post-operative male and female pelvic health service in an inpatient setting and are also able to carry and support an outpatient caseload.

You will work closely with the bank pelvic health physiotherapists and the wider MDT to shape the expansion of the pelvic health service. As both in- and outpatient areas expand, you will work across both areas, maintaining a non-surgical management outpatient caseload and ensuring a smooth patient journey.

• Develop and implement evidence-based care pathways for pelvic health conditions, ensuring high standards of treatment and patient-centred care.

• Deliver care to patients undergoing surgical interventions, and those requiring ongoing rehabilitation and conservative management.
• Provide specialist clinical leadership, education, and training to physiotherapy staff and other healthcare professionals to enhance knowledge and competence in pelvic health physiotherapy.

• Ensure compliance with professional codes of conduct and hospital policies, upholding the highest standards of clinical governance and patient care.
