Healthcare Assistant roles in Keighley
Protocol Healthcare Services places Healthcare Assistants in and around Keighley, on agency shifts and in permanent roles. You do not need years of experience to start: what matters most is reliability, patience and a genuine interest in the people you look after.
Working around Keighley
Work comes up near Utley, Riddlesden and Ingrow, much of it within reach of Airedale General Hospital. Between Airedale NHS Foundation Trust and Bradford Metropolitan District Council, most of what we staff around Long Lee sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Utley, Riddlesden and Ingrow one week, Long Lee, Thwaites Brow and Oakworth the next. If you are based around BD20 or BD21, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
A typical shift
- ✓ Assisting with mobility and safe moving and handling
- ✓ Taking and recording clinical observations under supervision
- ✓ Companionship, conversation and keeping people connected
- ✓ Reporting changes and keeping clear records
- ✓ Helping people wash, dress and stay comfortable
- ✓ Supporting with meals, drinks and nutrition
Shifts and contracts
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If Oakworth is easier for you to reach than Oxenhope, say so and the rota follows it. Once you are established we keep the work regular rather than sporadic, usually in the same two or three services around Oxenhope.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Utley and Long Lee first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What you will need
- ✓The right to work in the UK
- ✓A caring, patient and reliable approach
- ✓Good spoken and written communication
- ✓Previous care experience is welcome but not essential, as training is provided
- ✓An enhanced DBS check, which we can arrange
How we work with you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your West Yorkshire shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Keighley itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Bradford, Halifax and Burnley as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Keighley.
Tell us which parts of West Yorkshire you can reach and we will match you to what is open. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
