Job description

At Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), our Nursing Assistants take great pride in the essential work we do. We are committed to going the extra mile for our patients, providing care with empathy, consideration, and dignity. Our team is among the best and most compassionate in our field.

Complex Health is dedicated to delivering high-quality complex health nursing care. You will work as part of a highly motivated team on F12. Experience working in teams is essential. We also seek outstanding personal qualities such as self-motivation, communication skills, and a professional attitude.

Priding ourselves on providing high standards of nursing care and supporting vulnerable adults in complex and distressing situations is vital. The ability to manage busy and challenging situations and work under pressure is also required.

Applications are welcome from all healthcare backgrounds. If you have transferable skills and experience but lack the qualifications, we may offer an apprenticeship role to support your development, subject to eligibility checks.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trusts in England, with a turnover of over £3bn, creating an exceptional integrated health and social care system for 1 million patients annually. We bring together 10 hospitals and community services across Manchester, Trafford, and beyond, fostering collaboration and transformation. Our staff of 30,000 are encouraged to pursue ambitious goals, benefiting from a scale of opportunity.

We have implemented digital systems like Hive, our Electronic Patient Record launched in September 2022, to improve clinical quality, patient and staff experience, and operational effectiveness. We are also a major academic Research Centre and Education provider, supporting high-quality research programs. Our Green Plan reflects our commitment to sustainable healthcare.

At MFT, we promote a culture of inclusion and belonging, offering equal opportunities for career development, and prioritizing health and wellbeing. We are dedicated to shaping the future of healthcare together.

Our Nursing Assistants are supported to develop their knowledge and skills through our Support Worker Development Programme, including the Care Certificate for those who haven't completed it previously. Successful completion can lead to progression into a Band 3 Nursing Assistant role.

For experienced Nursing Assistants seeking a Band 3 position, a skills analysis will be conducted to identify any gaps, with support provided to access relevant training modules for progression.
