About the Home
Finding the right care home can be a difficult journey for any family. But we hope there's reassurance in knowing the local team at Oak Manor care home in Shefford is considered 'outstanding' by the CQC.
Join us and you'll quickly see why people say we feel like a second family. You'll understand that our team simply won't compromise in the quality of their support. You'll see our home is made to enhance the comfort and independence of older people. And you'll feel the charitable ethos, along with the spirituality and warmth that flows through every Methodist Homes home.
About You
The right values, attitude and behaviours are more important than your previous career background. Therefore, whilst previous experience is desirable, your respect for older people and willingness to undertake training is more important.
You don't need any qualifications to get started as a Domestic Assistant. You will have a kind, warm and caring nature and be able to work well as part of a team but also use your own initiative.
