Adult Social Care | Locum Occupational Therapists
Eden Brown Synergy is currently recruiting experienced Occupational Therapists to join the London Borough of Hackney Adult Social Care Service. We have opportunities across Community Reviews, Sensory Services and Reablement, working within Hackney's innovative neighbourhood model to deliver strengths-based, person-centred interventions that maximise independence and improve outcomes for local residents.
These roles offer the opportunity to work within integrated multidisciplinary teams, supporting adults with complex physical disabilities, sensory impairments and long-term conditions to remain independent within their own homes while preventing, reducing or delaying the need for ongoing care and support.
Available Teams
Community Reviews
As part of the Community Review Team, you will undertake comprehensive reviews of existing care packages, equipment and adaptations, ensuring services remain appropriate, proportionate and focused on promoting independence.
You will work closely with residents, carers and partner agencies to identify opportunities for prevention, reduce long-term dependency on services and support people to achieve the best possible outcomes through Occupational Therapy interventions.
Sensory Service
Working within Hackney's specialist OT and Sensory Service, you will complete holistic assessments for adults with complex physical disabilities and sensory impairments, recommending specialist equipment, assistive technology, Telecare and major adaptations that enable residents to live safely and independently.
The role places a strong emphasis on early intervention, prevention and personalised support, helping residents maintain independence and avoid unnecessary escalation of care needs wherever possible.
Reablement Team
Hackney's innovative Reablement at Home Service supports adults following hospital discharge or community referral through short-term, therapy-led interventions.
Working alongside Reablement providers, you will develop personalised therapy plans, monitor progress and review outcomes over a period of up to six weeks, enabling residents to regain confidence, rebuild daily living skills and reduce reliance on long-term care services.
This service adopts a "doing with, not doing for" approach, empowering individuals to maximise independence while supporting safe hospital discharge and preventing avoidable admissions and ongoing care packages.
