NHS care worker?? (Non medical)

Posts: 435 Forumite
My OH works as a carer in an old people's home, do the NHS employ people to fulfil roles similar to that of a care worker, washing, feeding, personal hygiene, etc., etc., if so, where are these jobs advertised?
Tried Google searches but unable to find NHS care worker roles, I've heard something about bank nursing, but again, at a loss where or if any non medical roles exist
Anyone able to give advice, or point me in the right direction?
I'm hopeless with technology, in addition, I suffer with MH issues, what may appear simple, I struggle with, may I ask, please be patient, thank you

Also look for HCA (Health Care Assistant), the original name for auxiliary nurses.1

Thanks for all the advice, auxiliary nurse, that's the terminology I was looking for
