Band 2

Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Band 2/3 Nursing Assistant to work at Galaxy House Inpatient Service. Galaxy House is based in the grounds of Royal Manchester Children's Hospital where we look after young people with demanding physical and emotional issues up to age 18yrs.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated Nursing Assistant to join our team. You must be motivated and passionate about working with young people with mental health concerns, as the job can be physically and emotionally demanding. There is a mandatory requirement for all staff to undertake the ‘Prevention & management of Violence and Aggression’ (PMVA). In return we will provide a comprehensive induction program and you will be appraised on a yearly basis with a view to developing knowledge and skills where appropriate. If you’re keen to learn and are able to work constructively as part of a multi-disciplinary team, it could be the ideal role for you.

Undertake the role of caring for a group of patients through indirect and direct supervision by a registered practitioner so as to aid in the deliverance of all aspects of care in a safe and timely manner.

Act as a role model providing guidance and support to Trainee Nursing’s Assistant’s as required, helping to ensure the efficient and effective running of the ward/department at all times.

Independently plan tasks and workload activities whilst ensuring that their practice is guided by standard operating procedures and established protocols. They will demonstrate self-directed development, recognising own limitations, and work within the scope of their role at all times.

Prioritise own workload and may be responsible for planned care and tasks delegated from a registered practitioner.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.
