Health Care Assistant

Join our dedicated District Nursing Service, where you will have the opportunity to provide compassionate care to patients in their homes and work in the community. We pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, patient-centred care and are seeking a motivated Health Care Assistant to support the District Nursing Service in Sefton.

You will work closely with our District Nurses and wider healthcare teams as a Health Care Assistant. This role requires you to work independently and as part of a team, ensuring our patients receive the highest standard of care. Your duties will include assisting with a variety of clinical interventions such as clinical observations, wound care and administering medication as directed by an appropriate professional, maintaining accurate records, having the ability to travel across the Sefton borough, and delivering care sensitively and confidentially.

We offer specialist inpatient and community services that support physical and mental health and specialist inpatient mental health, learning disability, addiction and brain injury services. Mersey Care is one of only three trusts in the UK that offer high secure mental health facilities.

At the heart of all we do is our commitment to 'perfect care' - care that is safe, effective, positively experienced, timely, equitable and efficient. We support our staff to do the best job they can and work alongside service users, their families, and carers to design and develop future services together. We're currently delivering a programme of organisational and service transformation to significantly improve the quality of the services we provide and safely reduce cost as we do so.
