Careers in healthcare support work

Surrey Heartlands is working with partner organisations to develop pathways that support the recruitment of Healthcare Support Workers into the NHS.

Newly recruited HCSWs will be offered the opportunity to undertake employment rotations within the various Systems, i.e. Primary Care/Acute Care/Social Care. Within each rotation, they will be guaranteed to access and develop the same quality of training and key skills recognised across those Systems, i.e. the Care Certificate.

Throughout the programme, Surrey Heartlands organisations will work closely with their HCSWs, supporting the mapping of their career pathway, training and offering career counselling. They will also provide the opportunity of rotational placements across all systems to develop a breadth of experience as a key member working within the NHS.
