Saint Catherine’s joins Step into Health scheme

Saint Catherine’s has become the first non-NHS organisation nationally to be signed up to the Step into Health initiative.

The hospice is also the first organisation in our area to be involved in the scheme.

Step into Health is a programme which connects candidates from across the Armed Forces community with employers and new healthcare career opportunities.

It provides support and guidance to review and enhance recruitment practices, so employers are able to attract members of the Armed Forces community, benefit from the transferable skills and values they bring to the workforce.

Opportunities include work placements and honorary contracts, application support and interview guidance, shadowing opportunities, and volunteering opportunities.
