Develop the knowledge and skills to provide high-quality and compassionate health and social care for a wide range of people.
Healthcare support workers (HCSWs) work as part of a team providing high quality and compassionate care to individuals. HCSWs carry out well-defined routine clinical duties like monitoring an individual’s conditions (by checking things like blood pressure, temperature or weight), checking on their overall progress, comfort and wellbeing.
HCSWs treat people with dignity, respecting individual’s diversity, beliefs, culture, values, needs, privacy and preferences; show respect and empathy for those they work with; have the courage to challenge areas of concern and work to best practice; be adaptable, reliable and consistent; show discretion; show resilience and self-awareness.
