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.

● Developing residents life skills and personal interests
● Helping residents stay safe and healthy
● Assisting with personal care needs

The Ideal Candidate

What are we looking for?

People who have a genuine concern for others and want to listen and empower vulnerable people, empathy is vital. We are looking for staff who are conscientious and dependable, people willing to carry out tasks to the best of their ability. We are looking for individuals who are organised and able to respond to the unexpected, people who are calm but responsive whatever the situation.

A staff member must be determined to make a positive difference to someones life. We are looking for someone who has a good sense of humour, excellent communication skills, a responsible and flexible attitude, a commitment to the job, and the ability to think quickly and problem solve.
