The role:

Are you a Healthcare Assistant with an NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care or equivalent with experience of working in a variety of healthcare settings? Are you looking to be part of a friendly and supportive team who put patient and family care at the heart of everything we do? If so, this exciting opportunity could be for you.


Our Hospice at Home Service is a small team consisting of 2 Co-ordinators and 12 Healthcare Assistants supporting patients in the community.


Following a service review, we are looking to recruit a further two caring, committed and compassionate professionals to join us as Healthcare Assistants.


We are committed to the delivery of the highest standards of care, enabling our patients to take control of their lives as their condition changes.
