Healthcare Assistant roles in Sheffield
Protocol Healthcare Services places Healthcare Assistants in and around Sheffield, 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 Sheffield
Work comes up near Hillsborough, Ecclesall and Crookes, much of it within reach of Royal Hallamshire Hospital. Between Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Sheffield City Council, most of what we staff around Nether Edge sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Hillsborough, Ecclesall and Crookes one week, Nether Edge, Firth Park and Crosspool the next. If you are based around S1 or S1, 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 Crosspool is easier for you to reach than Sharrow, 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 Sharrow.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Hillsborough and Nether Edge first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What you will need
- ✓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
- ✓The right to work in the UK
How we work with you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your South 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 Sheffield itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Rotherham, Chesterfield and Barnsley as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Sheffield.
Tell us which parts of South 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.
