Hey everyone,

I've decided to do a work series for people interested in different jobs suitable for students with flexible hours (zero hour contracts). Today I'll be going into details of what the role of a Healthcare Assistant (HCA) entails as I get this question a lot. Applying for a HCA role can be difficult sometimes. I'll be touching on the type of roles expected by a HCA in a hospital and community. Everywhere is different for a HCA so I'll high recommend doing your research and find out what role is suitable for you.
