The Role:

Your responsibilities will include personal care, getting ready for the day ahead, assisting with meals (food and nutrition) and providing day to day social interaction which is just as important as each individual's physical wellbeing.

Being a Care Assistant is a busy role where our resident's needs will be your top priority. You will be supported by a senior in charge on every shift as well as a hands on management team who are in the home each day. You will ensure all resident activity is recorded effectively (training will be provided) and any concerns are highlighted in a timely manner.

You will quickly become part of the care home family and let's be honest, our team members are what makes our home a great place to live and work

We are looking for individuals who have a passion for care (first and foremost) and those who are keen to be the best in the sector. You will work as part of a dynamic care team, ensuring the home adheres to the necessary requirements and procedures at all times.

Hours of work:

08:00- 20:00 (days) and you will be expected to work on a permanent rolling rota of three shifts on, three shifts off which equates to an average of 42 hours per week in total.

This is a varied and rewarding role that will no doubt provide you with a feeling of job satisfaction. If you are seeking an exciting opportunity with a forward-thinking organisation, then this could be the job for you.
