Are you a health visitor who would like to work in a small team and provide continuity of care to the families you care for?

"The reason I like working in Islington is the diversity of client population, the facilities available for families e.g, groups and activities and the ability to walk to and from my visits (this gives me time to reflect)"

This is a quote from one of our newly qualified Health Visitors.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone.

Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff.

We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief.

The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences.

We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
