About the Role
The Clinical Support Worker will play a vital role in delivering continence care services for patients across Sheffield. Working under the supervision of continence nurses, you’ll carry out reassessments for patients either in their homes or in clinics, ensuring they receive the right continence products and support tailored to their needs.

Beyond clinical care, you’ll provide reassurance, maintain dignity and support holistic wellbeing, making each patient feel seen and supported.
This role offers you the chance to be part of a supportive team where your input matters. You’ll be trusted to work independently at times while always having a team behind you, and your work will directly impact the comfort and quality of life of people in the community.
Key Responsibilities
- Carry out continence product reassessments that reflect each patient’s unique needs
- Provide support to continence nurses by undertaking clinical procedures safely
- Maintain effective communication with patients, carers and health professionals
- Protect patient confidentiality while ensuring accurate record-keeping
- Contribute to a joined-up service by working closely with other NHS and community teams
