The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification., As a Health Care Assistant/ Support Worker you will be responsible for participating and assisting in the delivery of care / services to patients and service users as part of a Mental Health and Social Care Health Service.

+ 72% of colleagues would recommend the Trust as a place to work, ranking us 1st for
Provider Trusts in the South West region on this question.
