As a healthcare support worker, you will be of great value to our teams in providing the outstanding care and experience to our patients and their families.

  • Help patients move around;
  • Make beds and maintain a clean, safe clinical area;
  • Communicate to patients and their families;
  • Manage stock levels for linen and other supplies.
When your tasks prove to be challenging, our Wellbeing team will be there to support you as well as our in-house physiotherapy services.

We are committed to ensure a work-life balance to all our staff by offering full time and part time roles, flexible working hours on a shift pattern to fit around your family life.
We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from disabled, Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) and candidates form our local communities.
