We have a fantastic opportunity to serve your local community and join the Ambulance Service as part of our Ambulance crews based from our Addlestone location.

An Ambulance Service Care Assistant (ACA) is a hugely rewarding and fulfilling role in the local community. Each day, you’ll be helping someone in need, making their lives that little bit easier, and knowing that you make a difference to their day provides you with a real sense of achievement.
Your main responsibility will be transporting our service users to and from their medical appointments and between healthcare facilities. This can be carried out as two-person crews or alone depending upon the patient’s mobility, so it is vital to hold a full UK driving licence and to meet the physical demands of the job.

- Assist with the handing over of patients to appropriate staff on arrival at treatment centres/hospital’s or to family/friends at their homes.
- Transfer patients from beds to stretchers, chairs to chairs or similar both in and out of hospital and medical/commercial flights.
- Assisting service users with challenging behaviour and/or mental health illnesses
- Ensuring that the ambulance is kept safe, clean and tidy
