Job summary

Healthcare Support Worker - Integrated Neighbourhood Team (Wound Healing Focus)

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated Healthcare Support Worker to join the Integrated Neighbourhood Team (INT) at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary neighbourhood team, you will support the delivery of high-quality, person-centred care to patients in their own homes, care homes and community clinics. You will work alongside Registered Nurses and other healthcare professionals to help patients maintain their independence, manage long-term conditions and achieve the best possible health outcomes.

A key element of this role will be supporting patients with wound healing needs, including lower limb ulceration, surgical wounds, pressure ulcer prevention and other complex wounds. Under the direction of Registered Nurses, you will contribute to the delivery of treatment plans, monitor progress and support patients in achieving positive healing outcomes.
