Bath, United Kingdom Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are inviting caring, supportive people to take a look at this exciting opportunity to join us as a Clinical Healthcare Support Worker.

We're looking for people who love helping others and can come to work with a positive attitude and a friendly smile. If that sounds like you, as a Clinical Healthcare Support Worker you will leave at the end of each shift feeling proud of the work you have done to support our patients.

Our Clinical Health Care Support Workers are integral to our nursing teams. It takes flexibility, commitment and compassion, and in return we can offer you a rewarding career where you can make a difference.

No previous healthcare experience is necessary. We will train you before you start working on one of our wards. You will start on our induction programme to help you settle in and you will learn the skills you need to do this role. You will also start you working towards the Care Certificate (if you do not already hold this qualification).

What tasks will you do?

You will be a core member of the team delivering personal care to patients. You’ll also be key in supporting patients with their own self-care and independence.

You'll work under the guidance of a healthcare professional i.e. a nurse and your job will vary depending on the ward you are based. Your daily duties will be varied to include:
Helping patients get up, washed and dressed, taking patients to the toilet, helping at meal times
Contribute to patient assessments such as blood pressure monitoring, oxygen saturation levels, body temperature
Recording your actions accurately in patient notes.

Our hospital is a 24 hour service as our patients need care and attention around the clock. Therefore we work on a shift basis and you are likely to be given early, late, and night shifts, so everyone gets involved working different shifts to ensure our patients receive the very best care.

This may be a big change to you and your lifestyle but our teams who work around the clock say that they enjoy the varied work pattern and get to work with more colleagues compared to the usual 9-5.

**The skills we are looking for**:
You need to be able to understand and communicate both verbally and write in English
Have numerical and analytic skills to do patient observations
You will need to have a customer-focused approach
You will need to be able to use IT systems and databases
You will have the skill to focus on the details with the ability to spot problems.

At the RUH we’re proud to put people at the heart of what we do, working together as one team to make a difference for our patients, each other, and our community. No matter what your role is, we value everyone’s contribution in supporting the exceptional, person-centred care we pride ourselves on.

We are committed to creating a compassionate and inclusive environment. This can be seen in our growing community of staff networks - celebrating successes and creating opportunities to listen and learn. We value our differences, champion kindness and civility, and truly believe that diversity makes us stronger.

A culture of learning, developing and innovating is the thread that runs throughout our whole organisation. We want to support you to thrive, taking your career to its full potential.

We value staff wellbeing, with a well-established programme of support. We believe in a holistic approach spanning all aspects of living a healthy life, including physical, emotional, spiritual and financial wellbeing. We’ve even got a pool

We are committed to supporting you and hope you want to join our team. In the meantime, find out more about l iving and working the beautiful historic city of Bath, learn about our extensive package of staff benefits, and read about how we’re providing healthcare fit for the future with the landmark Dyson Cancer Centre and our passion for research.
