The UHMBT Careers Team's official Facebook feed. We provide information about career pathways into the NHS & Social Care sector.
The Careers & Engagement Team at University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Trust provides a service. Firstly, a service to the Trust and the wider healthcare community, by providing opportunities for our workforce to demonstrate the opportunities within their sector. In addition, we provide a service to the education providers in our area, opening up placements for their students undertaking vocational qualifications in health and social care and supporting their students with careers talks and mock interviews. Lastly and perhaps most importantly, we provide a service to members of our community who are seeking healthcare employment opportunities. This can be in the form of volunteering, work experience, pre-employment programmes, educational placements and general guidance on healthcare careers. We work closely with our Careers Team colleagues across the North West of England, ensuring that our offers are consistent and inclusive. We also ensure that our colleagues in the Social Care sector are integral to the work we undertake, creating a system-wide workforce offer. Inclusivity, Diversity and Equality lie at the heart of our service and we endeavour to ensure that all members of our community are provided opportunities on an equitable basis.
