What does a healthcare support worker do?

Healthcare support workers (HCSWs) work closely with a team of registered healthcare professionals, including nurses and midwives, supporting them, and helping patients on their health journey, whether this is by helping them to manage a long-term condition or supporting them through their recovery. HCSWs are at the centre of patient care.

What is a healthcare support worker (hcsw)?

The term healthcare support worker (HCSW) is an umbrella term which covers a variety of health and care support roles, including healthcare assistant (HCA), nursing assistant, theatre support worker, maternity support worker and more. Healthcare support workers play a vital role in providing excellent care to patients across all NHS care settings.

What is the healthcare support worker programme?

The healthcare support worker programme was launched in September 2019 to support NHS trusts to increase their HCSW recruitment, minimise vacancies, avoid reliance on temporary staff and so provide greater continuity of care for patients, and to support more people to progress into nursing and midwifery roles in the future.
