Rehabilitation Assistant - Stroud - C9327-24-1481
Stroud
Job summary
Our Home First & Reablement service supports people return home after a stay in hospital. This helps them continue their recovery in their own surroundings - regaining their ability to live as independently as possible.
This is an exciting time to join our service - we are expanding to continue to provide quality care and support and we are looking for enthusiastic and motivated individuals who want to work with people in their communities.
We are recruiting experienced and new to care Rehabilitation Assistants in Stroud.
As a Health Care Support Worker, you will work closely with other health care professionals, delivering essential clinical and personal care. You will ensure that our service user needs are met and assist the team in maintaining high standards of care delivery.
Previous experience is desirable but not essential. If you are new to care and hold no experience in healthcare, then we offer a fantastic development opportunity with a structured development plan (including achieving the Care Certificate). You will progress from a pay band 2 to pay band 3 on achievement of the Care Certification.
This role is offered on a permanent basis.
Our service runs 24/7 and all our Rehabilitation Assistant roles offer core hours of 07.00-22.00.
We currently looking to recruit part time to our evening shifts. The following shifts are currently highly sought after for this locality:
PM - 17:00 - 22:00 (Rolling shift pattern of 4 days on and 4 days off).
Main duties of the job
You don't need any previous caring experience - all we ask is that you:
- enjoy working with people;
- understand what motivates people;
- are comfortable being involved in practical, sometimes personal and intimate care provision for people;
- have a desire to learn and develop skills;
- are able to work alone and in a team setting.
The support we provide includes washing, dressing, cooking meals, accessing community services, arranging delivery services, improving mobility and balance so patients can safely use steps or stairs, walk in and outdoors, or use transport.
As this is a community-based role a full Driving Licence valid for the UK and access to a vehicle insured for business use is essential.
The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
About us
We have in excess of 5000 staff working over 50 sites, providing a diverse range of services. We strive to support an organisational culture that is welcoming, builds and celebrates inclusivity and diversity and provides a sense of belonging and trust.
The annual NHS Staff Surveygives our people the opportunity to tell us about their experience working at the Trust. For the 2023 survey just over 2800 colleagues gave us their views (58.5%). It was great to see from the results that colleagues are saying that:
- 89.7% believe they are making a positive difference to patients/service users;
- 73.3% would recommend the organisation as a place to work;
- 82.4% agree that care of patients and service users is the organisations priority;
- 76.7% would be happy with the standard of care for a friend or relative
Our results put us as 5th nationally as a Community, Mental Health and Learning Disabilities NHS Employer of Choice and 1st equal amongst all NHS Provider Trusts in the South West. However, we know we have more to do and will continue to drive forward our commitment to making GHC a Great Place to Work.
