Job description

Your Opportunity:

If you’re a Therapy Assistant who loves rehabilitation therapy (Speech Language Pathology, Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy) and working with children, then this position might be just what you’re looking for! The rewards of this role include the opportunity to contribute to your clients' quality of life through very practical, client and family-centered care. Working within a multidisciplinary team, you will provide supervised supports and interventions for pediatric clients and their families. You will assist in preparing materials for clinical and non-clinical activities, and for planning and following treatment plans as specified by the supervising Therapists, and in providing supports to the Children's Rehabilitation Services program overall. In the heart of the Canadian Badlands in Southern Alberta, the Drumheller valley offers visitors a unique combination of spectacular scenery and interesting things to do – think Jurassic Park! Rolling fields suddenly give way to steep, dry coulees ridged with the strata of hundreds of years of erosion by time, wind and water. Through it all, the tranquil Red Deer River gently makes its way through parkland and a myriad of recreational opportunities. Come to Drumheller – there is nowhere quite like it in Alberta! Join a team of skilled and dedicated health care professionals, support staff and physicians who promote wellness and provide health care every day, all across the province. We're passionate about what we do. Discover interesting and challenging work, where you have the opportunity to grow your skills, collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams, and make your mark as you contribute to a healthy Alberta.

Description:

As a Therapy Assistant, you will work both individually and as part of an interprofessional team under the assignment, monitoring and evaluation of an audiologist, occupational therapist, physiotherapist, recreation therapist or speech-language pathologist. You will contribute to effective and efficient rehabilitation services including direct and indirect client care across the health care continuum (healthy living, getting better, living with illness and disability, end of life care) for all ages as well as non-client service provision. This role will require you to work effectively with internal and external partners, and display professionalism and strong ethics in both client centered care and participation in care teams. You will demonstrate evidence of reflective thinking and lifelong learning that enhances individual and team competency. You will have opportunities to use your interpersonal and clinical skills in contributing to quality improvement, program planning and student supervision.

Required Qualifications:

Completion of diploma from an accredited post-secondary rehabilitation Therapy Assistant program or equivalent training may be considered.

Additional Required Qualifications:

Current Basic Cardiac Life Support – Health Care Provider (BCLS-HCP).

Preferred Qualifications:

Preference will be given to those with relevant pediatric experience. Experience and training to provide support for speech and language services under the supervision of an SLP would be a strong asset for this position.
