Description
This is an exciting new post to be a Bank Chaplain at the RUH with training provided. The Spiritual Care Team aims to provide religious and spiritual care and support to patients, their family/carers and Trust staff - engaging with people of all faiths or none, without prejudice, fully embracing the principles of the Equality Act 2010.

You will be an excellent team player, committed to team working and the development of other people with an ability to work on your own initiative, whilst remaining accountable to others. You will have the ability to enable others from any faith and none to address their spiritual and religious needs in a manner consistent with their own culture, background, values and beliefs.

You will be part of a rolling training programme for Chaplains and Spiritual Care Volunteers.

The Spiritual Care Team is actively involved in all clinical areas within the RUH, and has particularly close links with the emergency department, obstetrics, palliative care, critical care and oncology services.

Situated within the beautiful city of Bath, a World Heritage site, the RUH provides acute treatment and care for a catchment population of around 500,000 people in Bath, and the surrounding towns and villages in North East Somerset and Western Wiltshire, served by four Clinical Commissioning Groups.

The Trust provides 565 beds and a comprehensive range of acute services including medicine and surgery, services for women and children, accident and emergency services, and diagnostic and clinical support services.

At the RUH we’re proud to put people at the heart of what we do, working together as one team to make a difference for our patients, each other, and our community. No matter what your role is, we value everyone’s contribution in supporting the exceptional, person-centred care we pride ourselves on.

We are committed to creating a compassionate and inclusive environment. This can be seen in our growing community of staff networks – celebrating successes and creating opportunities to listen and learn. We value our differences, champion kindness and civility, and truly believe that diversity makes us stronger.

A culture of learning, developing and innovating is the thread that runs throughout our whole organisation. We want to support you to thrive, taking your career to its full potential.

We value staff wellbeing, with a well-established programme of support. We believe in a holistic approach spanning all aspects of living a healthy life, including physical, emotional, spiritual and financial wellbeing. We’ve even got a pool!

We are committed to supporting you and hope you want to join our team. In the meantime, find out more about living and working the beautiful historic city of Bath, learn about our extensive package of staff benefits, and read about how we’re providing healthcare fit for the future with the landmark Dyson Cancer Centre and our passion for research.
