Fife, United Kingdom NHS Fife Full time

Post Title: Health Care Support Worker

Location: Glenrothes area

Salary/Banding: Band 3

Hours: 22.2 hours per week 

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a health care support worker to join the Coslane District Nursing Team. You must have excellent organisational skills, effective communication and interpersonal skills. Must be a team player and have a genuine interest in working in the community.
Previous community experience would be an advantage as would phlebotomy skills. Patients are seen within own homes, and care homes in order to deliver excellent nursing care.
The main focus of the team is preventing unnecessary admission, supporting earliest possible discharge from hospital and enabling patients to remain as independent as possible in their homes. You will be required to support the effective District Nursing Team deliver excellent evidence based treatment and care to the practice population of house bound patients. 
You will be required to have knowledge and experience to be able to support this role and an appropriate SVQ as desirable.
Our service offers regular supervision and supports training opportunities.
An ability to travel across the Fife-wide division if the service warrants it and you must have an ability to provide evening cover as required.

A requirement of this post is to become a member of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme Prior to appointment.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recruiting Board.
