Hospital Carer Support Worker - Victoria Hospital Kirkcaldy – 21 Hours Per Week
You will be based at the Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy, but may be expected to travel throughout Fife.
Your work will include providing a sensitive, person-centred support service for carers where the cared-for person is in hospital, working closely with the Fife Carers Centre team to establish continuity of support for Carers after discharge.
You'll be working closely with hospital teams, advocating for carers, providing essential information, and ensuring they receive the support they need. If you have experience in carer support, social care, or health services and want to be part of a team that values and recognises unpaid carers, we’d love to hear from you.
You’ll be supporting carers in identifying and achieving their own outcomes using the Carer Support Planning process, providing carers with a benefit check, assisting with benefit applications, and, importantly, providing a listening ear for carers.
The closing date for this position is midnight on Tuesday, 25th March, with interviews being held on Wednesday, 9th and Thursday, 10th April.
