Description

An opportunity has arisen for a friendly, caring and hardworking individual to join the Trust in the key role of Porter.

Training will be for a period of 2 week.

No two days will be the same and you will enjoy the chance to work with a wide range of colleagues, patients and their families as you go about your duties across the hospital site.

We'll rely on you to provide a number of crucial services, including patient transfer between wards and departments, moving equipment, case notes, specimens, medical gases, linen and furniture, as required.

The nature of the job does involve heavy lifting care of patients during transportation, lone working and a lot of walking and being on your feet most of the shift and therefore by the very nature the post requires individuals who are physically fit and able to maintain a responsive condition at all times.

Yeovil District Hospital is now part of Somerset NHS Foundation Trust.

As an organisation, the NHS offers a wide range of benefits including flexible working, pension contributions, market leading annual leave allowance, career progression, and regular conversations, not to mention our Blue Light Card and NHS exclusive discounts.

The benefits of working in Somerset include the idyllic countryside, with our areas of outstanding beauty and stunning coastlines.

You will get to enjoy these perks whilst still only being a stone's throw away from bustling city centres like Bristol, Bath and Exeter and only two hours away from London.

There are excellent educational facilities in the area and, when compared to other regions, house prices are reasonable. You will experience the best of both in Somerset, the countryside and the cosmopolitan - there is truly something for everyone
