A charity providing specialist mental healthcare
Here's a little more information about us and what roles we have on offer...
St Andrew’s Healthcare is a charity providing specialist mental healthcare for patients with some of the most complex, challenging mental health needs in the UK.
Working in mental health with us offers something different to other jobs. You're there to help people on their journey - this means that you will be presented with a variety of new challenges every day, and you get the reward of seeing the change and improvement in our patients.
Our Dementia and Huntington’s Disease (HD) service consists of seven locked wards for male and female patients from across the UK.
Therapies and interventions are delivered through a highly skilled multi-disciplinary team consisting of medical, psychology, occupational therapy, social work, physiotherapy, nutrition and dietetics, physical health and speech and language provision. Adopting an integrated approach to service delivery, we ensure that the care we provide is personalised addressing both mental and physical health conditions.
> Healthcare Assistants (HCA)
You be part of the multi-disciplinary team of Nurses, Occupational Therapists, Psychologists, Social Workers and Responsible Clinicians that work on the ward who are able to provide expertise in all aspects of the service users' requirements.
You do not have to have been a Healthcare Assistant before, as long as you are caring, committed, and compassionate about people and would like to improve quality of life for the people in our care. You will also be trained within all aspects of the role and have a mentor to support you.
The job can be highly rewarding, though challenging at times, but through training and experience, you will learn all the skills you need to support people in a least restrictive way and help them to thrive and move forward.
