Applications are now invited for individuals to join the Scottish Ambulance Service as a Trainee Ambulance Care Assistant (ACA) at Broadford or Portree on the Isle of Skye in the North Region.

**The Role**

As an ACA, you will be responsible for delivering high quality care and safe transportation for non-emergency patients from their homes to hospital and clinic appointments. You will work 5 days out of 7 which will include a variety of shift times and can involve weekend working.

The programme takes approximately 6 months and is initially carried out at one of our regional training centres. After this time, you will progress to your allocated Ambulance Station.

**The Person**

This is a hugely varied role, each day and each patient is different. As a result, you will need to have excellent interpersonal skills as well as an ability to communicate effectively. You will need to demonstrate flexibility and the ability to make effective and safe decisions.
- Evidence of successful study at SCQF Level 4 or above in Maths and English.
- Full UK driving licence with no more than 4 penalty points.
