Introduction

Are you a naturally caring experienced Healthcare Assistant in the UK, looking for your career to be fulfilling, where you’re valued, recognised and supported?

If you want to make a positive difference to the lives of others and change lives for the better, then join the team at Bradley Complex Care in Grimsby as a Healthcare Assistant and experience what delivering great healthcare should feel like.

You’ll have access to a range of training and development options to help you achieve your career aspirations, while working as part of a supportive and friendly team in a culture built on kindness and teamwork.

We are seeking Healthcare Assistants with a minimum of 6 months UK experience, specifically in the field of Mental Health and Learning Disabilities.

What you will be doing

You will join an inclusive and supportive team that works well together to provide care to people with a range of Mental Health conditions, using your knowledge and skills to help people along their recovery pathway towards leading a valued and fulfilled life.

Your day-to-day will include ward rounds, analysing behaviours and adapting care accordingly with colleagues, updating patient records, and providing overall care and support, which may include assisting with personal hygiene.

It can be quite a challenging environment at times, so a positive attitude, compassion, resilience and vigilance are important. But it is hugely rewarding to see people improve because of your involvement, knowing that you’ve made someone’s life better.

The shift pattern is 11.42 hours a day, 3-4 days a week including days, nights and weekends on rota basis, 40 hours per week.

Where you will be working

Location: Bradley Road, Grimsby, Lincolnshire, DN37 0AA

You will work at a specialist service for men and women living with complex needs who may have a primary diagnosis of Learning Disability, Mental Health issue or Personality Disorder. You will work as part of the multidisciplinary team to support people who display behaviours of concern and pose challenges for services, including those with highly complex and severe challenging behaviour. Bradley Complex Care is located in Bradley, Grimsby, and North East Lincolnshire. The location provides a more relaxed local environment than a busy inner-city setting, which supports service users engaging in their therapeutic programme, thus increasing the pace of recovery and speeding up discharge.
