Do you have a caring nature? Are you looking to make a difference to people's lives? Do you want to work in an environment where no two days are the same? Are you flexible with your working hours? Can you see yourself providing care to adults who need your support?

Our homes are a community of people with strong social networks. The homes are lived in with the individuals having control over their own space.
The homes are engaged with the community, and have good relationships with the local health community - GPs, hospital, nurses, consultants. Our homes find solutions with the person at the centre and work in partnership with key individuals.
Relatives are confident in the values of our care homes they are able to challenge when needed and to thank.
Families understand that staff are people too and have their own relationships with the people they support.
Our homes are part of a "whole" system with commissioners and regulators trusting and engaging in a supportive and appreciative way.
