Volunteer - Ward Helper (Midlothian Community Hospital) Ward Helpers support patient care and smooth running of wards at Midlothian Community Hospital.

No personal care or manual handling of patients is required. This role takes place for 2-3 hours per week, with a variety of morning and afternoon slots available. A minimum commitment of 6 months is requested after training and induction is complete.
