At Care in Mind our homes are always a hub of activity and energy where the young people can feel safe, and our staff enjoy coming to work.

Our young people can still be quite active at night so you will have lots of interaction and will be required to support them their wellbeing, education, household tasks and general life skills.

There will also be more challenging aspects to the role such as incident management and de-escalation of challenging behaviours.

You will be required to update online care records, complete medication administration and provide effective handovers to the day staff.

In addition, you will be responsible for the general upkeep and tidiness of the home ensuring the young people live in homely environment.

Even though you are working nights, you will have the support of another night worker or a sleep in and have access to an on-call manager for additional support.


At our home in Fulwood you will be working with young people who have a variety of mental health diagnoses including personality disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, those who have difficult relationships with food, and those who use self-harm as a strategy to cope with their emotions.

This role requires patience, resilience, and compassion as you support our young people to navigate various challenges and develop new skills.

When asked what qualities are the most important to them in a staff team, our young people have said they would like caring, honest, understanding, fun, and kind people to come and work with them.

They love to learn new things and have a variety of hobbies and interests that they like to share with the team.

They're also an adventurous bunch who engage in a variety of activities such as going to the zoo, museums, outdoor sports, theme parks, and escape rooms to name a few.

Our young people are working towards moving on positively from the home into the community and are developing skills that support their independence and autonomy.


The home is a 5-bed service and is located near local woodland and scenic walking routes, it is a big house with lots of character set in large grounds, which are perfect for summer BBQs, veg patches, and outdoor games.

The surroundings are very peaceful with stunning views of local wildlife and countryside.

It is a short drive or bus journey away from the centre of Preston which has excellent transport links and numerous amenities.

The home is well cared for and staff and young people work together to make it homely and welcoming.

Previous care experience is not essential and full training will be provided.

You will receive ongoing support and mentoring from our friendly residential and clinical team which includes Reflective Practice, 1:1 supervisions and Group Staff support.

The job is highly rewarding and a grea
