Working in Health Care can be incredibly fulfilling as it allows you to make a positive impact on people at their most vulnerable time.


We are looking for experienced, caring and committed Mental Health Transport Assistants with an engaging approach who are keen to enhance their skills within the Mental Health sector.

This is not just a driving job, it is about taking the patient on a journey from one setting to another with safety, care, respect, consideration and empathy to make that transition as smooth as it possibly can be.

There may be times when trained techniques need to be used for the patients safety, either in a place of safety, a vehicle or other settings.

The job satisfaction comes from knowing that you have played an integral part in their time of crisis.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion:

SCUK is committed to building a culture of inclusivity where everyone within the business feels welcomed, respected and valued as an individual and what we all bring to the business.

We all have a responsibility to behave inclusively to fellow colleagues as well as patients, clients, visitors and members of the public in all their activities and to act as ambassadors for inclusion.


BACKGROUND & EXPERIENCE:
