Senior Health Care Support Worker

Senior Health Care Support Worker

Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust

The closing date is 18 February 2026.

This is an exciting time to join Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation Trust (LPFT), as we move to a purpose built new ward environment at Norton Lea as a Senior Health Care Support Worker.

Havenside at Norton Lea is a brand new 19 bedded acute inpatient ward due to open March 2026 as part of our ambition to reduce dormitory accommodation in the local Lincolnshire area.

Havenside will provide high quality, specialised treatment to adults with mental health treatment needs, who cannot be safely supported by a community based service.

You will provide high quality, evidence-based, holistic care to patients in line with the Health Care Support Worker Code of Conduct and Trust policies.

You will support senior colleagues to assess, plan, implement and evaluate care plans based upon individual patient needs.

The post holder will participate and facilitate creative and meaningful recovery focused activities with individual patients and in groups.

The role may require the use of physical interventions to manage an individual whose behaviours may cause harm to themselves or others and where other non‑physical intervention, for example, communication, de‑escalation and problem‑solving skills have been unsuccessful.

Due to the UKVI immigration changes we are no longer able to offer sponsorship for this role. Please provide details of the visa type and expiry date in your application. Failure to provide the required information will result in your application being rejected.

We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic individuals, with a passion to care for those with mental health treatment needs to become part of our friendly and supportive team.

We are seeking only the best Senior Health Care Support Workers, those who really want to make a difference, and put the Trust Values (Compassion, Pride, Integrity, Valuing Everyone, Innovation and Collaboration) at the core of patient care.

Working on an Acute Inpatient Ward is a challenging yet rewarding environment. We are looking for someone who is positive, patient and resilient.

You will have excellent communication skills with the ability to establish professional therapeutic relationships with patients to enable them to achieve their treatment and recovery goals.
