As a Healthcare assistant you will provide clinical, health and personal care for patients under the direction of the nurse in charge.

You will maintain at all times, a kind, caring and professional attitude towards patients, relatives and colleagues within the clinical setting, taking into consideration dignity, privacy, and confidentiality, cultural and religious needs.
