Health Care Support Workers

 

Healthcare support workers work across a variety of settings, from mental health to end of life care. As a healthcare support worker, you’ll work under the supervision of a healthcare professional, supporting them and helping patients and service users on their journey back to full health.

The opportunities to progress are endless; you can choose to specialise in a particular setting, or train to qualify as a healthcare professional, such as a nurse or associate practitioner.

"It has been valuable to gain a new skill alongside the School Nurse Assistant role and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.”

The role of a health care support worker is hands-on, one minute you could be taking blood and the next lending an ear to an anxious patient. Your day-to-day will vary depending on which part of the Trust you’re working in. For example, if you’re based in a hospital, your duties may include helping patients to move around or monitoring patients and performing basic health checks.

We have a range of roles across Hampshire, check out our vacancies to find out more.

We always put patient care first and try to bring a happy and positive feeling to the wards we work on.”
