What your day will look like Working within the acute units of Toowoomba Hospital, you'll immerse yourself in a dynamic clinical environment where your expertise genuinely changes lives. You'll engage with a diverse and often complex inpatient caseload, managing referrals, completing assessments, delivering targeted interventions, and applying advanced clinical reasoning to support meaningful outcomes for clients and their families. Collaboration will be at the heart of your day as you work closely with a multidisciplinary team, contribute your insights to clinical discussions, and provide clear, confident communication across services and stakeholders. You'll take the lead in shaping high‑quality occupational therapy practice by refining protocols, driving service improvements, and championing evidence‑based approaches. Alongside your clinical impact, you'll guide and mentor less experienced clinicians and students, nurturing skill development and fostering a supportive learning culture. Your day will be a blend of purposeful clinical work, professional leadership, and meaningful connection, all within a valued, collegial team at Darling Downs Health. Let's talk about you!
