Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd
The PEEER Youth Service has grown over the last 2 years and currently offers a broad youth service focussing on supporting young people living with a Long-term Health Condition registered to Southampton Hospitals. NHSE and the local ICB have recently awarded the service funding to expand further over the coming months, helping to build an evidence based case for youth work in a hospital setting, and working towards securing sustainability funding.
We are recruiting a Youth Development Worker that will work across sites at Winchester and Basingstoke Hospitals supporting young people with a LTHC (initially focussed on 3 specific specialities).
Youth workers are recognised within UHS as a unique resource for both young people, families and the clinical teams. This role will extend this service to our colleagues at Hampshire Hospital Foundation Trust, and whilst employed directly by UHS, there will be supervising leads at the allocated sites (Winchester and Basingstoke) in place.

UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.

UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.
