The surgery department provides care for patients both electively and in emergencies. It represents a centre of excellence, not only Swiss but also European in several fields and in many of its surgical specialties.
Comprising 5 care assistants and 22 nurses, the care team works closely with multi-professional health staff (doctors, surgeons, dieticians, physiotherapists, etc.) and in partnership with patients and their relatives in a context of chronic care.
Care and Support Assistant in Surgery - 80% to 100%
As a care and support assistant, you care for patients of all ages. Under the responsibility of nursing staff, you perform basic and supportive care by providing constant support, while developing and fostering human relationships.
You also participate in organising daily activities to ensure their physical, psychological and social well-being. You thus provide support and assistance in patients’ daily living activities and in supporting their families.
You ensure the cleanliness of the patient’s immediate environment and contribute to their safety by respecting the hygiene and asepsis rules in force.
You actively participate in preventing complications related to hospitalisation in collaboration with other health professionals (pain, pressure sore prevention, fall prevention, etc.).
Qualifications
You hold a Federal Certificate of Vocational Education and Training (AFP) as a care and support assistant (ASA) or an equivalent diploma recognised by the Swiss Red Cross. You have professional experience in the health sector, ideally in a hospital setting, and you have excellent spoken and written French skills.
You demonstrate the ability to support patients throughout their hospital journey and can quickly adapt to changes in work pace.
You show a sense of welcome and communication and have the ability to work in an interdisciplinary team. Your team spirit, creativity, organisational skills and anticipation enable you to position yourself as a true care partner.
You are motivated and attentive, ready to commit to an institution whose relational values you share, namely trust, respect, team spirit, recognition, equality and inclusion.
Additional Information
You have a regular schedule while being available outside of working hours.
