Meet Imogen and Sarah

Hello! I’m Imogen, I work as a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist for Dorset HealthCare. I’m so fortunate to work with such a kind, caring and supportive team. We’re constantly learning from each other and bringing high levels of specialism to our Dorset community. Every day working for Dorset HealthCare is different, we cover a large patch working with many different MDTs supporting patients with their swallowing and communication needs. Neuro, mental health, brain injury, progressive neuro, criminal justice, palliative care we cover it all.

Lunch breaks by the sea? Yes please, come and join us!

My name is Sara and I have worked as a Speech and Language Therapist for 5 years.

I have worked for Dorset HealthCare in three different roles, adults with learning disabilities, paediatrics and now with community adults. I have been here for just over a year and have been fully supported by my fantastic team to be dysphagia competent and a as a developing band 6.

Every day is so different and definitely not monotonous in community.  I really value being able to see patients in their own home to assess/give advice on their swallowing and/or communication, and I am in a good position to support their families and carers.

The team are very forward thinking and the training, CPD and development opportunities are really motivating.

We are a social team, often go for walking supervisions and we can’t wait for you to join us on this year’s lunches on the beach!
