Chester, United Kingdom Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Working Full or Part Time

We are recruiting health care assistants to join our intermediate care division for Stroke Rehabilitation Ward at Ellesmere Port Hospital.

Stroke Rehabilitation Ward is a 17 bedded ward focusing on rehabilitation and discharge planning for both male and female patients post Stroke.

Intermediate Care is a vital part of health and social care, where you will be supporting patients who have experienced a period of ill health or injury to regain their independence and help support to rehabilitate them back to doing the things that are important to them, this may include supporting a patients mobility and transfers, encouraging someone to learn how to use a new piece of equipment, increasing a person’s independence getting washed and dressed or providing emotional support and encouragement when they need it most.

Whether you are new to health care, thinking of returning to work or want a career change then this is the opportunity for you. If you want to improve the quality of life for the patients you support, work within a fast-paced friendly team and be empowered to make change, a career in our Intermediate Care Service will be for you.

As a health care assistant you will be working in a friendly supportive environment, delivering care and assisting in maintaining therapy to our patients whilst working alongside our experienced nursing and therapy team.
