healthcare support worker - band 2

ready for the recognition and rewards you deserve? be brilliant with rcht. we are looking to increase our team of healthcare support workers in various departments withinthe care group of urgent, emergency and eldercare (uee).

a healthcare support worker is no ordinary job and it is not for an ordinary person. we need caring, supportive people who love helping others and can come to work with a positive attitude and a friendly smile. it that sounds like you, then we guarantee you will leave at the end of each shift feeling proud of the work you have done to support patients to feel and be at their best.

working in the nhs is not all about making other people richer or doing meaningless, boring and unrewarding jobs - it's real work with real people. it takes flexibility, commitment and compassion, but in return we can offer you a rewarding career where you can really make a difference. urgent and emergency care is a busy fast paced environment where no two days are the same. it is a challenging place to work but also a hugely rewarding one.

with strong team working skills, you will be able to demonstrate the values that are important to us, communicating well with both colleagues and patients. we are open to your ideas for how to improve the services we offer; without compromising on quality and always treating patients and team-mates with respect and dignity.

here at royal cornwall hospitals nhs trust we are proud of the first class care we provide our patients and to further support this we are expanding our teams of healthcare care support workers across all departments within the hospital. you will be trained to complete your care certificate which gives you all the skills you need to be a success (aside from your brilliant personality and helpful nature!). but it doesn't stop there - if you want to progress in your career we can even offer you the opportunity to specialise with specialist skills or take our fantastic apprenticeship to become a nurse. no university fees, no student debts - you can earn whilst you learn! what are you waiting for?

sustainability is integral to the trust achieving the nhs net zero target. all staff are therefore actively encouraged and supported to implement new ways of working within their field of expertise.

update - nhs employees/applicants of frontline posts at the royal cornwall trust are no longer required to be fully vaccinated against covid by 1 april 2022. this is pending the public consultation and parliamentary review announced by the government. we may however request immunisation status but this will not impact working with the trust.
