Nursing Assistants

A Sub Group of the regional Nursing and Midwifery Careers Website Steering Group, chaired by Clare-Marie Dickson, South Eastern Trust, developed this microsite to promote Nursing Assistant careers in Health and Social Care. It is anticipated that this resource will inspire those who either wish to embrace this career choice or progress to become a Registered Nurse.

The website demonstrates the diversity of Nursing Assistant and Senior Nursing Assistant roles within the four fields of nursing and also showcases a variety of settings where Nursing Assistants are employed within Health and Social Care.

Nursing Assistants work in any of the four fields of Nursing. Click on any one of the four fields below to view career profiles of Nursing Assistants, Senior Nursing Assistants and some who are now Student Nurses or Registered Nurses.

The resources for Nursing Assistants and Senior Nursing Assistants endorsed by the Department of Health are accessible here
