We are seeking to employ a motivated individual to the role of Healthcare Assistant at Band 3 level for our Forensic Inpatient Directorate (Bracton Centre and Memorial Hospital).
Previous experience in healthcare is not necessary as full training will be provided, but applicants must possess a positive attitude to mental health, recovery, and social inclusion.
We are a Trauma Informed Service, looking for dynamic and compassionate individuals.We are seeking to recruit people who are curious about the ways that adversity and traumas impact our patients' behaviours, functioning, clinical presentations and engagement.
You will be supported to deliver high quality care to patients, in which your relational skills will help our patients to feel safe, listened to, valued, engaged and empowered.
You will be supported to be trauma responsive, developing practices that avoid causing further harm, promote engagement and create a safe context for healing and recovery.
You will have access to multiple sources of support, including supervision, training, staff support sessions and working alongside colleagues from multiple professional disciplines (e.g., psychologists, occupational therapists, nurses, social workers, medics and administrators).
The job is designed to introduce staff who have little or no experience of caring work, but who demonstrate the values of the organisation and are passionate about patient care.
Healthcare assistants provide hands on personalised care to service users, always under supervision, and with the support of more senior staff.
You will use your skills to create safety, support emotional regulation, reframe frustrating behaviours and reflect on your own practice.
The job is designed to help the post holder gain clinical experience, under close and supportive supervision, and to ensure our service users and carers receive care from people with the right values.
We are keen to recruit applicants who recognise the importance of fostering safety, trustworthiness & transparency, peer support, collaboration, empowerment & choice, and attending to cultural, historical & gender issues.
You will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team, where good communication supports the management of clinical and risk issues on the ward.
You will be part of a service that is focussed on re-emphasising how to focus on relationships and communication to keep people physically and psychologically safe within in the forensic setting, such as providing patient choice and, when possible, collaboration and transparency.
