About the Job: 

The role of the HCA will be to work as part of the nursing team and you will support people through their recovery with both their physical health and their mental health needs. We are looking for candidates who are experienced working with people who have mental health problems, incredibly compassionate, caring and confident when dealing with difficult situations.

Psychiatric Intensive Care Units (PICU) are specialised wards that provide inpatient mental health care, assessment and comprehensive treatment to individuals who are experiencing the most acutely disturbed phase of a serious mental disorder, where some individuals present with acute distress and maybe an absconding, suicide, or self-harm risk. Griffin Ward is a 6-bed female only psychiatric intensive care unit which has a higher staff to patient ratio compared to most wards.

The health and wellbeing of our team members is very important to us and we offer a robust induction period, as well as regular supervision and support. You will have opportunities to progress your career with a structured learning journey that will enable you to achieve your long-term goals and work to your strengths.
