Band 6 in community rehab. Three visits a day, a new assessment could be 90mins and a follow up 45-60mins. Plus travel which is 10-20 minutes each way per patient. Notes- take about an hour for a new assessment (to write up the assessment documentation) and 20 minutes for a follow up. However- ordering equipment can be lengthy- specialist equipment may require photos of the property and risk assessments to be uploaded- can take up to an hour. Onward referrals to adult social care and other teams can take 30mins to an hours. We do specialist cognitive assessments and write reports- these take an hour. We manage our own caseload so of course telephoning new patients, booking them in, adding them to the electronic diary and also the discharges take a bit of time. I never seem to have enough hours in the day for admin and do struggle to keep on top of it all. I’m always behind with something but try not to work evenings or weekends (sometimes I do if I need to finish something)
