Support Worker

Introduction

If you care for others without a second thought and are looking for a rewarding career, where you can make a difference and changes lives for the better, then a Support Worker at The Chimneys Clinic whereby you will receive a £500 welcome bonus, could be the right choice for you.

Whether you are looking for a new career or already work in healthcare through the NHS or private sector, you’ll receive training to join the team, where you will be valued and supported, with career development opportunities available.

It’s a career that you can take pride in while enjoying the satisfaction of helping people and seeing them improve. It’s what delivering great healthcare should feel like.

What you will be doing

You will join an inclusive, supportive team that works well together to provide care to people with Mental Health conditions. Whether you have experience as a Support Worker, Healthcare Assistant or Care Worker, you will use your knowledge and skills to help support people lead a valued and fulfilled life.

It can be a challenging environment at times, so a positive attitude, compassion, resilience and vigilance are important. But that challenge is hugely rewarding in seeing people improve; being able to do something today that they couldn’t do last week because of you.

You will have access to the Elysium Wellbeing team, which is on hand to keep you feeling great; be it a chat, massage or group activities. Who doesn’t like a free massage at work?
