What to expect as a TOTP Neuro Rehab OT

Our neurological occupational therapy team have a variety of clinical experience and varying capacity for private work. Some of the team are fully independent whereas others split their time between private work and their statutory roles.

Once you become an OT Practice therapist you will have an introductory call with one of our client management team (who are also OT's). They will get to know your clinical skill set, experience and the sort of cases that you are comfortable with and will allocate work to you based on this. We see a wide range of clients with a variety of rehabilitation needs and goals. From memory, cognition and behaviour management, to activity planning and regaining independence in every day life, our team provide holisitic OT intervention for as long as the client requires.

We will always speak to you before allocating work and the office team are here to support you with your cases as needed.

You manage your own diary and work load, booking appointments at times to suit you and your clients. We agree your geographical coverage at the start of joining us, on average our team would be travelling an hour from home for appointments.

To help you understand the kinds of cases we receive and allocate to our neuro rehab team, here are some examples:

  1. James, 17, has been referred for a full initial assessment by his case manager following a Traumatic Brain Injury. The OT has identified that further cognitive assessment is needed combined with a treatment programme to help James identify his rehabilitation goals.

  2. Lucy, 14, with a brain injury. She been referred by her case manager to adapt her new family home.

  3. Mark, 27, with a high spinal cord injury. Our OT is working with him to develop the skills required for independent use of head controls for his wheelchair and environmental controls.

  4. Adam, 53, is working with our OT to relearn travel routes across London to his work place and to adjust his work role to compensate for his brain injury.

The team are so helpful, supportive and approachable, I am glad I found them… it was the best professional decision I have made.

Alex
As a London-based neuro rehab OT, there is a lot of work available to me through The OT Practice.
Alex
Laura
It fits around my family life perfectly, as I am able to write my reports in the evening, while my children are in bed, which means that I can have a better work–life balance.
Laura
Heather
Since starting with The OT Practice, I've had some really interesting cases, and can do OT without any constraints. At first, I was worried about taking a step into private practice, and I shouldn't have been. I have supportive Client Managers who are always on hand to ask questions. If you are thinking about moving into private practice, take that chance and don't look back.
Heather
Becky
I was nervous before joining TOTP, but I have found the Client Managers and all the staff to be supportive and they always help me out when I call with a query. The online system, Practice Plus, makes the referral process, reports and note keeping straightforward to complete.
Becky
Alison
The flexibility of the work is great. I have the ability to choose when I can work. The training videos and guidance on how to use the system are very helpful. You can find assistance at any time of day. The support from Client Managers has been excellent. Working for The OT Practice has expanded my practice and I have returned to some of my core skills as well as using my specialist knowledge.
Alison
Bridget
I find it really usefull having a regular stream of referrals. You really can think outside the box and find the ideal solutions for the client without being limited by time or finances. Goal setting is much more holistic and allows you to address goals that you would not usually be focussing on within public health services, an example of this would be how to cook a valentines meal, or resuming the role of a Church Warden.
Bridget
Sam
Working with The OT Practice is a really great way to work in private practice. You get support from Client Managers on your cases and I like the processes in terms of templates for reports, case notes and arranging appointments.
Sam
Barbara
I feel really valued as an OT with The OT Practice. I have flexibility to provide what clients need as opposed to having the limits of statutory services. It's a move I've not regretted at all. I would recommed anyone to give it a try. I took the leap and it's definitly been worth it.
