### First Contact Physiotherapist

### Moray

We are looking to recruit a suitably qualified Physiotherapist to provide advanced physiotherapy assessment and intervention to patients within MSK services in Moray.

Band: 7

Hours: 28.8 hours a week

Contract: Permanent

Base: Moray, NHS Grampian

This post is part of the FCP (First Contact Practitioners) team based in GP Practices across Moray. Services are provided at all GP Practices across Moray, in Forres, Buckie, Keith, Speyside and Elgin.

There will be support from the Band 8a Team Leads and from within the multi-disciplinary teams in the Practices.

We have a robust system for documentation audit, supervision, mentoring and peer review within all sites.

There is a requirement for the post holders to be able to demonstrate advanced post-graduate training and be willing to undertake additional training as required. This may include injection therapy and non medical-prescribing.

This post is advertised as 28.8 hours a week but there may be the opportunity to supplement this with more hours taking it to full time.

As part of NHS Grampian, we work closely with our colleagues within the region to ensure that strategies are developed over a wider geographical arena.
