Being a Team Leader at Care UK:

Team Leaders at Care UK are flexible in approach and have broad experience of caring for others and leading shifts.

They're great at building relationships and inspiring others too.

Collaborating and sharing information and ideas comes naturally to them, as does using tact and diplomacy to deal with challenging situations and quickly resolving them.

Their innovations help to raise standards, while their passion for what they do is second to none. And, they consider it a privilege to be trusted to look after others. Do you have the same sort of attributes? Then we could have just the role for you.

What you'll be doing:


Being a Team Leader Is about acting as a role model by leading and supervising carers day-to-day, working alongside them and completing regular staff appraisals.

It's also about taking responsibility for case managing residents and liaising with families, health care professional and other stakeholders to ensure that the best care plans are created and delivered.

Working closely with nurses to develop the services we provide is an important aspect of the role too, as is administering medication and carrying out risk assessments.

Put simply, it's about making a difference. A real difference.

What's more, you're trained, or willing to train, to administer medication and used to contributing to, monitoring and implementing changes that improve outcomes for residents.

Above all, you have a natural ability to help make the lives of others more fulfilling and want to work in an environment where the work can be hard, but also fun and rewarding.
