Salisbury, United Kingdom Abicare Services Full time

Job Introduction

At Abicare, we believe in providing high-quality care where people are looked after with dignity and respect. Kindness is what care is all about, so first and foremost, we carefully choose our staff for their kind and compassionate nature. We aim to care for, nurture and enrich the lives of all our staff, clients and family members.

Community Healthcare Assistants are often the first point of contact for clients, so you'll need to be friendly and confident, with good interpersonal skills. You'll need to be able to put clients at ease, helping them with their personal care while making sure they feel comfortable.

Main Responsibilities
- Personal care: bathing, dressing, help with going to the toilet and supervision of medicine
- Bedtime and morning routines: help with getting up and getting ready for bed
- Food preparation and help at mealtimes
- Light housework: laundry, cooking, and cleaning
- Companionship and social interaction
- Social activities: visits to clubs and to see friends
- Errands: shopping and collecting prescriptions

The successful applicant will need a full driving licence and access to a vehicle.

Applicants must have the right to work in the UK.

A good Healthcare Assistant is simply someone who truly cares - they do the job because they know they can make a difference to an individual’s life, injecting some humour into a day, helping with small chores that improve clients’ quality of life, providing reassurance where confidence is low and lifting morale during those lonely moments. Good Healthcare Assistants love what they do and go that extra mile, noticing those little extras that enhance your life.

We are looking for:
Community Healthcare Assistant who will be naturally kind and caring, wanting to make a difference
Willingness to learn and undertake online and classroom training, including the use of moving & handling equipment
An understanding of what good care looks like
Strong written and communication skills
Individuals that are able to work independently and as part of a wider care team
A calm attitude and the ability to think clearly when under pressure
The ability to prepare simple meals and follow good standards of hygiene
Flexibility to work unsocial hours, you must be able to work alternate weekends

You will be expected to exhibit Abicare’s 5 core values (C.H.E.C.K):
C- Committed H - Honest E - Empowering C- Collaborative K - Kind
