Therapy Support Worker, The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust
"I love my role because I get to work with patients face-to-face on both the wards and in the community. Working with stroke survivors is a privilege. I enjoy working through NHS Professionals because it’s great to pick up extra shifts when you have the availability and you get paid that week or the following week, depending on when your shift is."
Pharmacy Technician, South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
“I am a Clinical Trials Pharmacy Technician during the week, then on weekends I get to be part of the dispensary team in the main Pharmacy so that I am still keeping a hand in, and it is nice to do both. A highlight of my career is completing my Medicines Management Course. I enjoy earning extra money on a weekend and having a chance to keep a hand in the Main Pharmacy”.
Therapy Assistant, West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust
"I love the fact that I can put a smile on my patients faces. By being able to see them transfer into a chair or take their first steps post-surgery is a very rewarding process in which I am grateful for. I am able to make a tangible difference in a patient’s recovery consistently.
Working through NHS Professionals provides me with the opportunity to work in a variety of settings/wards within a hospital. This is important in allowing me to develop my clinical reasoning and experience on wards that I may not always be on during the week. As part of my continuing professional development, I believe this is something which would also challenge me when I am in unfamiliar environments to take a clinically reasoned problem-solving approach to each patient".
Social Worker, Camden & Islington NHS Foundation Trust
“I enjoy helping others and working with people through their recovery, whether it’s coming out of prison, detoxing from drugs and alcohol, or obtaining housing and work. I love the flexibility of working through NHSP and getting to work across different sites”.
Operating Department Practitioner, Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust
“I enjoy having a positive impact on a patient’s operative journey and being able to reassure and comfort patient’s post-surgery when they are at their most vulnerable. I choose to work through NHS Professionals to be able to help my department, and also by doing extra shifts I am giving myself more time/opportunities to develop skills”.
