Help us make a difference to people with life-limiting illnesses…
At The Myton Hospices, we provide specialist care and support for people with life-limiting illnesses, and their loved ones, from the point of diagnosis to end of life. We are a much-loved and well supported charity, at the heart of our community. We have three hospices, a range of community services, and 25 charity shops in Coventry and Warwickshire.
About the role
We have a fantastic opportunity for a Nursing Assistant to work across both our Myton at Home (Hospice at Home) setting and the hospice inpatient units. The role will require the postholder to work flexibly to meet the needs of the services. The Myton at Home service provides expert and compassionate care to patients in their own homes, at a crucial time in their lives.
Our Nursing Assistants:
* Support Registered Nurses to deliver holistic nursing care
* Communicate sensitively with patients, families and caregivers
* Assess and respond to patients’ needs
* Assist patients with personal and emotional care
This role involves home visits within the Warwickshire area. You will be based at our Warwick Hospice, but also required to work at our Coventry and Rugby Hospices on occasion.
About you
We would love to hear from you if you have:
* Experience of caring for patients and families with life-limiting/life-threatening conditions
* Understanding of safeguarding
* Compassion
* NVQ/QCF level 3 (or equivalent), or willingness to work towards this (essential)
* UK driving licence
* The right to work in the UK (we cannot support with sponsorship)
Other roles you may have experience of could include: Healthcare Assistant, HCA, Health Care Assistant, Care Support Worker, Carer.
We will carry out an enhanced DBS check including the children’s and adult’s barred list because you will be working in regulated activity with patients and their families. We will cover the cost of the check.
We are committed to building an inclusive workplace and encourage everyone to bring their true selves to work. However you identify, and whatever background you bring with you, we welcome you to apply. If there are any adjustments that would help improve your experience with Myton, we encourage you to share this with us.
We particularly welcome applications from people with disabilities and from ethnic minorities, who are currently under-represented in our hospices. We also believe our interview process should be inclusive and transparent. If there is anything missing, or a way we can improve, please do let us know.
