Becky, one of our wonderful Healthcare Support Workers who works on one of our inpatient wards, also shared this:
"I’ve been in my role for the last two years, working on one of our inpatient wards.
It’s such a rewarding opportunity to know that when I come to work I make a real difference to the lives of our patients, who are at the heart of everything we do.
The job is so varied and exciting. One day I’ll be supporting a patient getting out of bed, or helping them with their meals and personal care. Other days I will just talk and listen to them or we can play games, do some colouring, or help to write down their feelings and plans for the future."
