**The Role**

The Allied Health Assistant (AHA) (Physiotherapy - CH) is located at Caulfield Hospital and is one of several AHA positions within the Physiotherapy department. This position will provide key support to the musculoskeletal and spinal rehabilitation teams. Some support in our home-based rehabilitation services may also be required at times. The overall objective of the position is to provide therapy support services to individuals and groups as directed by the physiotherapist with which they work, in this case across the entire physiotherapy service.

Primarily the AHA (Physiotherapy - CH) will assist the physiotherapist through the completion of tasks such as:

- Assisting the physiotherapist with assessment and treatment, whether in an individual or group setting.
- Providing exercise, mobility and activity programs as prescribed by the physiotherapist.
- The delivery of equipment and the completion of the associated paperwork as prescribed by the health professional.
- The coordination and organisation of services upon discharge as prescribed by the physiotherapist.
- Administrative duties that assist the physiotherapist such as the entering of statistics, and the ordering and stocking of equipment.

The AHA (Physiotherapy - CH) works closely with the physiotherapy and other multidisciplinary team members to provide a flexible and responsive service that works to meet each client’s identified therapeutic goals. The AHA will also be responsible for administrative and cleaning duties which assist with client management and will contribute to the smooth operation and ongoing development of the Physiotherapy Department.

It is a condition of employment that individuals may be required to work across all Alfred Health sites and services, including weekend and Public Holiday shifts as rostered.
