Healthcare Assistant roles in Walsall
Protocol Healthcare Services places Healthcare Assistants in and around Walsall, 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 Walsall
Work comes up near Bloxwich, Willenhall and Darlaston, much of it within reach of Walsall Manor Hospital. Between Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust and Walsall Council, most of what we staff around Aldridge sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Bloxwich, Willenhall and Darlaston one week, Aldridge, Brownhills and Pelsall the next. If you are based around WS1 or WS10, 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 Pelsall is easier for you to reach than Streetly, 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 Streetly.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Bloxwich and Aldridge 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 West Midlands shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Walsall itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in West Bromwich, Wolverhampton and Dudley as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Walsall.
Tell us which parts of West Midlands 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.
