About the role

Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust is recruiting Healthcare Support Workers for its inpatient wards. This is a developmental role open to applicants with or without previous care experience. New starters receive training, support from clinical educators and a structured route from Band 2 to Band 3.

What the Trust is looking for

  • Compassion and a commitment to safe patient care.
  • Good communication and teamwork.
  • A willingness to learn and develop.
  • The ability to work flexibly in a busy hospital environment.
