Baby Clinic Volunteer (Shipley)

We have an exciting opportunity for volunteers to join our Health visiting team, supporting the community baby clinics. This role would suit someone who is looking to work in the NHS, or gain experience to allow them to apply for college or university.

The baby clinic volunteer will meet and greet parents and children on arrival at the clinic, help to complete the growth measurements and offer support to those who want to self-weigh. You will have good communication skills, allowing you to talk and listen to those who come to socialise and also, after initial training, you will be able to offer basic health promotion messages and share information on local activities.

As well as the completion of the online mandatory BDCFT Volunteer Induction, you are required to attend the following:

• Volunteer Welcome Workshop- Please attend one of the following in Saltaire: Monday 24 June 12.00 – 2.30 Monday 29 July 10.00 – 12.30 Friday 30 August 10.00 – 12.30

• Infection Prevention Training- 1st August – 2.00 pm – 3.30 pm (Online)

These training sessions must be completed for you to be able to progress into your volunteering role, so please make every effort to attend. If you have any problems, please speak with your Volunteer Coordinator.

Opportunity available only on Thursday mornings at Shipley Health Centre (BD18 3EG)
