Description

We are looking for 2 Healthcare Support Workers who are interested in joining a highly motivated and award-winning team. Working within the general hospitals to support patients over the age of 65 with a mental health diagnosis.

Being in a hospital can be a frightening time for most of us, which can be exasperated by a diagnosis such as dementia.

Your role would be to provide person-centred care and meaningful activities to meet the needs of the patient.

As an award-winning team, we pride ourselves on the learning opportunities we provide.

Ensuring that we encourage and support individuals to further their educational needs to develop themselves and their future development within the health care service.

If you are interested in working with us, you will need to demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills and a commitment to enable clients' independence, rights, choices and dignity.

A caring and compassionate attitude is essential.

Whilst experience of working within mental health or learning disability setting would be desirable it is not essential -it's more about what you can bring to the role.

We adopt a flexible/blended approach to rostering ensuring that you are able to manage your work/life balance, so tell us what you can work and we will try to accommodate your needs.

As a Health Board we embrace continuous learning to improve the patient experience, we will provide you with outstanding professional development opportunities which will assist you on your own journey of excellence.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply.

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board is a multi-award winning NHS organisation with a passion for caring. The Health Board provides an exceptional workplace where you can feel trusted and valued.

Whatever your specialty or stage in your career, we have opportunities for everyone to start, grow and build your career.

We offer a fantastic benefits package and extensive training and development opportunities with paid mandatory training, excellent in-house programmes, opportunities to complete recognised qualifications and professional career pathways including a range of management development programmes.

We offer flexible working and promote a healthy work life balance, provide occupational health support and an ambitious plan for a Wellbeing Centre of Excellence to support you at work.

Our Clinical Futures strategy continues to enhance and promote care closer to home as well as high quality hospital care when needed.

This includes the Grange University Hospital which provides specialist and critical care and is the newest addition to the clinical futures strategy opening in November 2020.
