Your support network
Quarterly Alignment Meetings
Team culture and satisfaction is a high priority at FIM. On a quarterly basis each team member meets formally with the Director to establish individual goals surrounding your wellbeing, career progression and alignment with FIM core values. You will develop a plan and action steps required to advance towards your goals and you are supported to reach your goals through fortnightly informal ‘catch ups’ between each alignment meeting.
Clinical Supervision
Therapists meet with a clinical team leader fortnightly or monthly (depending on experience) to discuss caseloads and gain advice for areas that are challenging. You will be guided to problem solve clinical questions related to your clients and provided with opportunities to upskill within a diverse range of clinical areas.
Discipline Discussions
Each month, therapists divide into clinical areas of Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology and Psychology. Resources and Professional Development can be shared and guidance provided by senior team members.
Informal Mentoring
There is so much learning that happens informally between therapists. We lean on each other for support between formal supervision sessions. Our clients are used to additional therapists observing sessions and so much is transferred in the ‘hallway conversations’.
Professional Development
In addition to the support available within FIM, each team member has a budget to attend offsite training courses that are aligned with clinical goals. In addition, there are frequent professional development opportunities provided for the whole team on a monthly basis.
