Stand by, we'll show you...
The NHS is changing. More emphasis on community-based care means there's never been a better time to join us.
We're recruiting now for compassionate healthcare professionals who want time with their patients. Time to treat the whole person, not just the condition. Time to focus on what they want to achieve and how we can help them to get there.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and adaptable Healthcare Assistant to join our caring and progressive teams working across 2 sites, Sheppey Community Hospital and Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital
Our hospitals are nurse-led and focus on holistic rehabilitation and therapy for people who need extra help to get home, or who are nearing the end of their life.
It's a relaxed atmosphere, but it's never a breeze - you'll need to think on your feet and be confident in making independent decisions on behalf of the patients in your care, under the direction of the nurse in charge.
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.
Additional Working Pattern: 30
