Are you caring and compassionate? Do you want to come and work for the NHS at a time when it needs you more than ever?

Have you considered becoming a healthcare assistant?

We'll train you on the job, give you loads of support to be the best that you can be - and you get to join our NHS family.

In return, we're after someone who is committed to caring for people in the same way you'd want your own family to be cared for.

If you think you'd be a good fit for our teams and the patients we care for, we're inviting you to join our virtual recruitment event to find out more about our Trust, our people, and our teams.

The webinar will be hosted on Microsoft Teams, and presented by Healthcare Assistants who can answer all of your questions about what it is really like to work with us and our patients. We have a variety of roles available for new or existing healthcare assistants across East and West Sussex, including posts in Brighton and Hove, Chichester, Crawley, Haywards Heath, Horsham, and Worthing.

The vacancies are in our Responsive Services teams. These teams are friendly and well-established and formed of lots of different NHS professionals, including nurses, allied health professionals and healthcare assistants. The teams look after patients to help them remain as independent as possible in their own homes without having to go to hospital.
