A different kind of clinical role

Being a functional assessor isn’t about treating patients – it’s about understanding how a person’s health condition or disability affects their everyday life.

You’ll carry out compassionate, evidence-based assessments, listen to people’s experiences, review medical information and produce high-quality reports.

Every assessment is different. Every conversation matters.
