Within NHS Tayside we are expanding opportunities for Health Care Support Workers to develop.

As a Healthcare Support Worker you will be working at the heart of our multidisciplinary teams delivering high quality, patient-centred care.

We are seeking to recruit people who are committed to delivering outstanding patient care, taking pride in what they do and are reliable, hardworking and willing to learn and develop. A caring, professional manner and excellent communication skills are essential. You must work well in a high pressure environment and have the ability to adapt to challenging situations.

The post will be based in Acute Medicine for the Elderly West (Ward 33), which is a 21 bedded unit that supports a 48-72 hour patient journey. This area provides inpatient care which is patient-centred and aims to maximise each patient’s potential for recovery, supported by an excellent Multi Disciplinary Team.
