The role is mainly practical with tasks including washing and dressing patients, making beds and serving meals. You might learn more technical skills, like how to take blood, or check a patient’s blood pressure, temperature or heart rate. 

Most roles are shift based which can mean working long hours in one day, there is also enhanced pay for unsocial hours. HCA/HCSW roles are available across the Integrated Care System in a number of locations from Community to Acute Hospitals and from Primary care to Social care. Through it all, we’ll want you to do what comes naturally: support and encourage our patients on their journey to recovery; helping them to build their confidence and independence through practical and caring support.

Experience is not required; we will invest in your future by supporting you to develop your career and skills.
