Bank Healthcare Assistant

1 month ago


Crewe, United Kingdom Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for experienced Healthcare Assistants and Support Workers to join our Hospital Bank.

Our Hospital Bank operates like an internal agency, providing staff to cover vacant ad-hoc shifts through out the hospital. Bank staff are employed on a casual, flexible basis.

Our Bank HCA's working in many different areas and with different teams. Working on the Bank can be very demanding for this reason and it is preferable that you have previous experience in a healthcare role. It is the perfect place to grow your expereince, working in lots of different areas accross the Trust.

Working via the Bank gives you the flexibility to get a real work life balance and work when it suits you.

Healthcare Assistant shifts cover 24 hours 7days a week. This includes weekends, nights and Bank Holidays.

Most shifts are normally 12 hours and are usually 7am - 7pm, and 7pm to 7am, but there are a variety of shifts.

It is important to consider that some aspects of healthcare work can be distressing and unpleasant but it can be an incredibly rewarding role.

You will be expected to help patients with personal care (such as washing or dressing) without being embarrassed or feeling awkward. You will also need to be able to communicate empathetically and sympathetically to relatives and care for our patients who can be very unwell.

**PLEASE NOTE**: You must be able to work a minimum of two shifts a week on the Bank (unless you are a student nurse).

Bank workers must complete role specific training prior to booking shifts. All training must be completed within 4 weeks of receiving your conditional offer.

Working in healthcare means you'll be making a positive difference to the lives of others. You may help to bring a new life into the world or save another life from ending. Even just knowing that you have helped to make a patient’s stay with us a little easier is priceless.

You will be working for the NHS, the UK's largest employer, with the many benefits that it brings:
Shift pay enhancements for nights, weekends and bank holidays

A minimum of 27 days' annual leave per year, plus 8 days for bank holidays.

Pension scheme

NHS discounts across various shops/restaurants and services

Career opportunities (such as our nurse degree apprenticeships)

Sickness entitlement to support you when you are unwell and cannot attend work

Occupational Maternity, Adoption and Shared Parental Pay

**Job Description**:
Healthcare Assistants carry out a wide range of care duties directly with the patient, and their relatives/carers.

These duties are carried out after training (which we will provide), under the direction of a professionally qualified practitioner (such as a Nurse) and can include the following tasks:
Maintaining dignity whilst helping patients to wash or shower

Serving food and, if necessary, helping to feed patients

Making and changing beds

Turning patients who are confined to bed to avoid pressure damage

Talking with patients to help them feel less lonely or anxious

Helping patients with mobility problems and assisting patients to rehabilitate to their discharge destination

Giving out and collecting bedpans and assisting with the toileting needs of our patients
