About Monash Health:

A bit about this Role


An exciting project initiated by the Department of Health is being undertaken by Monash Health, in conjunction with other health networks.

Through the Alternative Pathways project, the Adaptive Hand Therapy Clinic will provide evidence-based and effective intervention for patients with specified hand conditions that respond well to non-surgical treatment, thereby enabling increased numbers of people to be removed from surgical waiting lists.

There is a full time Senior Clinician position, and a second position at Grade 3 or Grade 2.

These positions will work in the Adaptive Hand Therapy Clinic, as well as clinical work in the existing Plastics and Ortho clinics.

With a team of 6.4 EFT, Monash Health has a large, acute Hand Therapy service, servicing a predominantly trauma caseload from orthopaedic and plastic surgery referrals across all age groups.

This project offers an opportunity to work with a non-trauma caseload offering effective patient-centred outcomes.

The Hand Therapy team sits within the Occupational Therapy department at Dandenong Hospital.

Hand Therapy has a continual focus on service improvement for the patient journey and we pride ourselves on delivering best care to maximise a patient's return to function.

We have a comprehensive supervision and professional development program both in the specialised area of Hand Therapy as well as in more general career and professional areas.


What we're looking for in you:

AHPRA accredited Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist with highly developed skills in treating a broad range of hand conditions, including acute hand injury.

The successful applicant is recognised as a clinical specialist within the Hand Therapy field and will drive innovation and excellence within Monash Health.

Clinical teaching is a core activity involving staff supervision and active support of student placements.


The Senior Clinician will be a strong supporter of research and evidence-based practice and will contribute to raise the profile of Hand Therapy within Monash Health and across the state.

The applicant will be involved in service development, working parties and clinical groups as needed, working with the Hand Therapy team and out-patient department to provide an excellent service and implementing service changes as required.


The successful applicant will:

  • Implement clear communication and advocate for best care for the patient
  • Engage patients in the participation of their treatment journey
  • Acknowledge responsibility for own learning
  • Collaborate with others in the development of department resources and research pursuits
  • Routinely uphold the Monash Health iCare values

Benefits, Rewards and remuneration:

  • Becoming a team member in a dynamic and innovative group of seven clinicians, with a shared vision of providing the best available care to Monash Health patients.
  • Contribution to and leadership of teamfocused research pursuits, to shape the knowledge base of our profession.
  • Salary packaging

Location:

Hand Therapy service is primarily based at Dandenong hospital, with satellite clinics at Clayton and Casey.
