Summary

Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust are seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated Senior Health Care Support Worker to join our dedicated team on Ward 14 and the Early Pregnancy Unit (EPU). This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to efficient and compassionate care across a dynamic and specialised environment.
Key Responsibilities:
• Deliver personal care and support to patients across the ward and EPU.

We put the patient at the heart of everything that we do and it is our aim to make sure that every patient is treated as we would want a member of our own family to be treated. At the same time, we expect our staff to be caring, kind and courteous to each other and to look out for each other. We believe that we are truly a clinically-led organisation.
We are proud that our Trust colleagues have voted us the best acute Trust to work for in the East Midlands for seven years running in the National NHS Staff Survey, while the Care Quality Commission has rated our Trust as ‘outstanding’ for care and our King’s Mill Hospital as the only ‘outstanding’ NHS-run hospital in the East Midlands.
