  • Accurately record patient progress, maintain up-to-date clinical notes, and report any changes in patients' conditions to the supervising therapist.
  • Follow clinical guidance, care plans, and relevant health and safety procedures to ensure safe and effective patient care.

  • Relevant experience supporting Speech and Language Therapists or working in a healthcare or rehabilitation setting.
  • An understanding of communication and swallowing difficulties, including dysphagia.
  • The ability to follow delegated therapy programmes and work within the scope of your role.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
