Health Care Assistants All Wards - Brooklands Hospital We’re looking for compassionate, motivated Healthcare Assistants (HCAs) to join our secure and adolescent assessment and treatment wards at Brooklands Hospital, a centre of excellence for learning disability and autism healthcare in Solihull. As an HCA, you’ll play a hands-on role in delivering therapeutic care. You will make a real difference to people with a learning disability and/or autism by helping them feel safe, valued and supported in their recovery. You’ll build trust, promote independence and contribute to positive clinical outcomes. We are particularly interested in people who are passionate about reducing health inequalities, advocating for fair access to care and promoting inclusion. You’ll work as part of a skilled team to deliver meaningful daily activities, support therapeutic interventions and maintain safety across our wards. You may already have experience as a healthcare assistant, support worker, or caring for someone with a learning disability or autism. If successful, you will be invited to a Brooklands Hospital recruitment day in January. You’ll hear from patients, meet the team and learn more about the role.
