Job description
Key Responsibilities:
- Conducting health checks and elderly care-planning consultations, including weight, BMI, blood pressure, urine testing and other routine observations.
- Wound care, with a commitment to develop skills in complex wound management under the supervision of the Practice Nurse if not already suitably experienced.
- Phlebotomy.
- ECG recording.
- Providing support to the reception desk when required.
- Additional duties will be discussed with shortlisted candidates at interview.
Essential Requirements:
- A recognised Care Assistant and phlebotomy qualification.
- Previous experience working as a Healthcare Assistant within NHS primary care.
- Familiarity and efficiency with GP medical software systems, e.g. SYSTM1 or EMIS.
- Patience, empathy and a "whole team" approach.
Please Note:
- We are unable to consider applicants whose experience is solely within social care or nursing home settings and a formal phlebotomy qualification and relevant primary care HCA experience are both mandatory for this role.
- We are especially seeking applicants who are committed to delivering high quality care with compassion, and who value working in a small team environment, with the flexibility such work requires.
Working Hours:
Shifts will be either 8:00–16:30 or 9:30–18:00, with some variation as needed.
