Job Description

I help to make a difference! Are you collaborative, caring and compassionate? Prisons are one of the most challenging, yet rewarding places for healthcare professionals to work - if you're looking for a role where you can develop your existing skills and learn something new every day, then this is the place to be. As a healthcare provider, we recognise the fact that prisoners are a socially excluded group with complex healthcare needs that can often be associated with poor outcomes. We believe in putting the patient first, regardless of the environment or their history. Care UK is the Health in Justice market leader - 3 years ago we were managing 12 prison healthcare services and in 2019 we're providing healthcare services in over 40 prisons across the country. Interested in development? We could give you the opportunity to develop in to a specialist role of your interest and benefit to the service i.e. health promotion, phlebotomy, venepuncture, vaccinations, suturing. What do we need from you so you can do the job? As a Healthcare Assistant you'll be an integral part of the healthcare team by bringing your top notch skills and passion for care. With plenty of proven experience, you could be involved in anything from health promotion clinics and observations, the provision of social/personal care; to supporting the nursing and pharmacy teams in primary care. You'll hold an NVQ 2/3 in Health and Social Care or equivalent. Flexible and adaptable? That's great! We're looking for someone just like you to be part of our team. If you have a passion for bringing new ideas to the table then we're here to listen on how we can improve and continue to develop our healthcare service within the prison environment.
