NEW YEAR, NEW JOB?


111 Health Advisors are highly trained to assess and negotiate to ensure the best patient care and outcome - no two calls will be the same.

We work around the clock receiving 111 calls from patients who need our help and advice. It is an incredibly rewarding role that allows you to really make a difference to our patients lives.


You do not need any experience in healthcare as full comprehensive training will be provided, however you do need to be dedicated to caring for all our patients and be able to work out of hours as this is essential.

This is an exciting opportunity to join one of Yorkshires most successful and innovative 111/Integrated Urgent Care Providers (IUC).

At Yorkshire Ambulance Service you will become part of a highly skilled and dynamic team based in the heart of Yorkshire and home to one of the UK's most diverse communities.

We are committed to staff development, and you will be presented with the opportunities to train and develop across the 111/IUC Service.


We require a minimum of three GCSE's at Grade C or above (or equivalent) including English, or you can demonstrate your customer service experience with strong communication and IT skills.

If you are already NHS Pathways trained and your license is up to date this would be an advantage.


You will be expected to work six out of eight bank holidays as well as three weekends out of four.


In addition to the attractive salary, our offer includes unsocial payments where appropriate under Section 2 of the NHS Terms and Conditions (excerpt below), an attractive NHS Pension, a generous holiday allowance as well as ongoing training and support for your continual professional development and progression.

For more information on the rota patterns we operate, please see the attached guidance document to help understand this better.


You can expect to get the best paid training and support as a part of the YAS family, access to development opportunities, competitive pay with out of hours enhancements (paid in addition to the salary listed), NHS Pension and other NHS money saving benefits for example, access to discounts in over 200 stores, days outs and restaurants by signing up to a Blue Light card.

Training


NHS 111 Health Advisors undertake an in-house training course which will include classroom training with assessments and exams which you will need to pass before being signed off as a competent NHS 111 Health Advisor.

This will take place at our Rotherham site with initial training being seven weeks full time. With a further four weeks with support.


Please note, we ask that those who are successful at interview commit to 100% attendance on the initial training course.
