Getting back to work in health and social care

A good starting point would be to look at entry level roles to gain some work experience. You could speak to family and friends in the industry and ask if you could do paid/unpaid work experience there. Or you could look at doing something completely different. Psychometric tests highlight your key work preferences.

Once you’ve decided what type of roles to apply for, I’d look at the qualifications they are asking for and do an online course. The Open University courses offer great opportunities for mums to gain new qualifications either online or through home study that can fit around child commitments http://www.open.ac.uk or do an online course for free, check out coursera.org or alison.com 

There are also plenty of job boards online specific to health and social care which may give you ideas for jobs and you can search healthcare & medical and social care opportunities here on workingmums.co.uk
