We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Occupational Therapist to join the Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) service at Bracknell Forest Council. This role focuses on housing adaptations and the progression of Disabled Facilities Grants, supporting residents to live independently and safely in their homes.
At Bracknell Forest, we pride ourselves on being a council which is stable and well-managed where our employees can thrive in a supportive environment.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>About you…</h3>
You will work closely with the DFG team, Adult Social Care colleagues, housing partners, contractors and Housing Associations. Using your occupational therapy expertise, you will ensure that adaptations are person centred, meet long term needs and are reviewed upon completion to ensure the assessed outcomes have been fully met.
You will have recent, relevant experience in major housing adaptations. You should be capable of working creatively with others to develop practical solutions where the home environment affects a person’s independence, function and wellbeing. This may also involve assessing and matching individuals to void properties when the current accommodation is unsuitable and cannot be reasonably adapted.
In addition to casework, you will also contribute to capacity building across teams by sharing your knowledge of major adaptations, legislation, eligibility criteria and associated processes.
<h3>About the team…</h3>
The Disabled Facilities Grant team is a small but busy team providing an extensive and responsive service to clients.

<li>Work collaboratively with a range of professionals including DFG Case Workers, Surveyors, contractors, Housing Officers, Architects, Social Workers and health colleagues to ensure the effective design and delivery of home adaptations under the Disabled Facilities Grant.</li>
<li>Liaise with individuals, families and carers to ensure that proposed adaptations are necessary and appropriate to meet the client’s needs.</li>
<li>Maintain accurate, up-to-date electronic records using the council’s case management system, ensuring that assessments, decisions and outcomes are clearly documented.</li>
<li>Write clear, evidence based reports and professional recommendations to support DFG applications and specifications for adaptations.</li>
<li>Attend and contribute to multidisciplinary meetings and case discussions where housing needs and adaptations form part of broader care and support planning.</li>
<li>Make timely referrals and signpost individuals to relevant services, community support or other specialists, when needs fall outside the DFG scope or where additional support is beneficial.</li>
<li>Support the development and continuous improvement of the DFG service through involvement in audits, service planning and evaluations, ensuring the service remains responsive and effective.</li>
<li>Effectively manage a caseload, prioritising work based on risk, need and the complexity of individual circumstances, ensuring timely assessments and delivery of outcomes.</li>
<li>Work in line with safeguarding procedures to identify and reduce risks of harm, liaising with relevant professionals and escalating concerns where necessary.</li>
<li>To ensure all practice complies with the policies, procedures and standards of the council, as well as the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) Code of Conduct and Standards of Proficiency.</li>
<li>To actively participate in regular supervision, individual and team performance discussions and reflective practice sessions to improve own and team practice and performance.</li>
<li>Operate within the scope of professional competence, seeking advice and support when needed, and participating in ongoing training and professional development activities.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Our benefits…&nbsp;</h3>
<ul>
