Welcome to the HCA Academy!

Thinking of starting a career with the NHS but not sure where to start? Introducing an industry leading programme which gives our Health Care Assistants (HCAs) the best start possible.

Joining the NHS as a HCA is a great launchpad to a rewarding career. With the HCA Academy, there has never been a better time to join us! There are so many vacancies to chose from, working in physical, mental and community health care. The HCA Academy is available to applicants for Health Care Assistant roles across two Trusts, Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (EPUT), and Mid and South Essex Foundation Trust (MSEFT), as well as Primary Care.

What is the HCA Academy and how can it benefit me?

The HCA Academy is provided by the Mid and South Essex Integrated Care System (MSEICS). It works with the two main NHS Trusts in Essex to provide additional support to Health Care Assistants.

The HCA Academy aims to give our HCAs the best start possible and will continue to support them throughout their journey.
