Cirencester, United Kingdom Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Progress your career and begin training in the Nursing Associate Role - be a part of the transformation of the Nursing and Care workforce

Coln ward is a Subacute medical & rehabilitation for 28 female inpatients. The focus is on holistic care to support a safe discharge from Hospital. Many of our patients are transferred to us from the Acute Hospitals in Gloucestershire & Swindon for ongoing care

GHC are excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for existing healthcare support workers to enrol to the Nursing Associate Higher Apprenticeship with Gloucestershire University and progress towards achieving registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) as a Nursing Associate.

The Nursing Associate is a highly trained generic support role within the field of nursing which acts as a ‘bridge’ between unregulated Healthcare Assistants (HCA) and Registered Nurses. Nursing Associates work under the leadership and direction of Registered Nurses to deliver care based on agreed plans.

Nursing Associates will have the breadth of knowledge and a flexible, transferable skill set to serve the health needs of local communities, covering both the full life span and a range of care settings.

Nursing Associates need to be adaptable, reliable, and consistent. In addition, they are required to demonstrate resilience, self-awareness and leadership skills.

The Nursing Associate Higher Apprenticeship develops Healthcare Assistants to advance into Registered Nursing Associates and to achieve the Foundation Degree in Nursing Associate Practice with the University of Gloucestershire.

The programme incorporates face to face learning and will comply with the NMC education standards and apprenticeship rules to ensure a high-quality education and learning experience.

The Student Nursing Associate apprentice will also participate in placement rotation to experience working in other healthcare services to gain a wide appreciation of health and care settings.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.

Our Staff Survey results showed people at our Trust feel they are engaged, part of a team and work for a compassionate and inclusive organisation.

Our overall scores were better than average in eight of nine themes and level in one - the best overall results for a community, mental health and learning disabilities Trust in the south west and first equal amongst all sector NHS providers within the region too.

Gloucestershire Health and Care is committed to embedding and providing personalised care through all of its services as part of our high-quality care strategy. The purpose of personalised care is to empower people to lead the lives they want to live. Personalised care starts with a conversation with people about what matters to them. It builds on what people can do, as well as addressing their health needs. Including new ways of working and delivering care, emphasising that we need to make effective use of the full range of our people’s skills and experience to deliver the best possible patient care. So we want to know What Matters to You and that you will share our values and join us on this very important journey.

The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
