Join to apply for the Nursing Assistant role at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust
We’re looking for flexible, compassionate and caring Nursing Assistants with a passion to be a key part of the patient care journey here at Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (MFT). We are recruiting across both Wythenshawe and Trafford Hospital inpatient sites. Our Nursing Assistants take great pride in the essential work we do. That’s because we’re not just helping patients, we’re going the extra mile for them – day in, day out. Our nursing teams are committed to caring for our patients and families, delivering consistent, high quality, patient focused care.
You’ll communicate in a sensitive and compassionate manner with patients, relatives and other members of the multi-disciplinary team, working flexibly across a range of day and night shifts over 7 days a week
Working under the supervision of Registered Nurses and within Trust guidelines and protocols, you’ll assist the Nursing team in delivering the excellent standard of patient care that you would expect for yourself and your loved ones.
Your main duties will involve supporting patients with their personal care needs, including mobilising, toileting, bathing, dressing, eating and drinking.
Following on the job training and assessment, you’ll learn how to undertake a range of delegated, clinical care duties that include recording patient observations and changes to patient clinical conditions.
On the Job Training Opportunities
On joining MFT, if you are new to working in healthcare, you’ll be supported to develop your knowledge and skills through our Development Programme for Nursing Assistants which includes completion of the Care Certificate. The great news is, the completion of the Development Programme will give you the opportunity to progress into a Band 3 Nursing Assistant role.
If you’re an experienced NA with a comprehensive range of skills and seeking a new opportunity in a Band 3 role, you’ll undertake a skills analysis when you start to ensure that you meet the skills required for your role. If there are any gaps identified in your clinical skills knowledge, you’ll be supported to access relevant modules from the clinical skills programme to support your progression to a Band 3 post on completion.
Evidence of prior learning will be reviewed and considered.
MFT is one of the largest NHS Trusts in England with a turnover of £2.8bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.
Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 30,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.
We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.
We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.
At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.
