Stand by, we'll show you...
Are you interested in joining a Trust committed to your development?
Would you like to be part of an organisation that really values your well-being?
Do you want to treat people rather than conditions?
Here at KCHFT we are constantly working to improve the lives of our staff and our patients. We care for you so you can care for your patients.
Our "We Care" strategy means that our ambitions are to put our communities first, deliver a better patient experience and importantly, be a great place to work for all of our workforce.
These aren't just empty words either. At our "Outstanding" rated trust more than half of our workforce work flexibly, including compressed hours and term time only. More than 70% of our workforce feel we take positive action on health and wellbeing, and we aim to improve this. We are proud to say that we consistently score above the national average in our staff survey results, particularly for our focus on the well-being of our workforce.
And with the forward NHS vision being based on community care, there has never been a better time to join us.
Our community hospital Healthcare Assistants provide essential care in an in-patient setting. The work you do will be crucial to the running of our hospital and the recovery of our patients.
As a community hospital Healthcare Assistant, you'll:
- Work as part of a team to provide care to local patients and families
- monitor the quality of care they're receiving
- provide feedback to managers on the quality of care.
Your patients could be any age, but they'll often be elderly, while others may have been recently discharged from acute hospital, be terminally ill or have physical disabilities.
As a Healthcare Assistant
you will work as part of a team to keep people safe and well during their stay. You will carry out care plans designed to support people and make sure that people who use our services have a good experience.
