About The Role

Are you a compassionate and reliable Care Assistant looking to make a genuine difference in people's lives? South Africa Lodge is looking for dedicated individuals with at least one year's experience within a care home setting to join our exceptional team.

Our 99-bed home is made up of six specialised units, each providing high-quality, person-centred care for residents living with complex needs, including dementia, mental health conditions, or other neurological disorders. It's a vibrant and rewarding place to work, where every day brings the opportunity to make someone's life that little bit brighter.

What You'll Bring

You'll thrive here if you're kind-hearted, patient, and committed to providing care that goes beyond the basics. We're looking for people who naturally treat residents with warmth and respect.
  • At least 1 year's experience working in a care home supporting residents with dementia, mental health, elderly or complex care needs
  • A genuine passion for helping others and promoting dignity and independence
  • Emotional resilience and a steady head in challenging situations
  • Good communication skills (both written & verbal)
  • A positive team-focused attitude
  • A caring, reliable, and positive attitude
  • Willingness to undertake training and continuous professional development
  • NVQ Level 2 or working towards it (desirable)
Your Working Pattern
  • Night shift: 19:45 - 07:45
  • Average: 38.5 hours per week
  • Alternate weekends
What You'll Be Doing

No two days are quite the same as a Healthcare Assistant, but your main responsibilities will include:
  • Support all aspects of daily living including personal care, mealtimes, and social activities
  • Promote independence, choice, and dignity in every interaction
  • Observe and report on changes in residents' health and well-being
  • Collaborate with your team to ensure exceptional, person-centred care
  • Communicate openly and respectfully with colleagues, residents, and their loved ones
Why Join Us?

At Cornerstone Healthcare, you'll be part of a team that genuinely cares - about our residents, our standards, and one another. We're proud of our reputation for excellence, and even prouder of the people who make it possible.

If you have the experience, compassion, and drive to make a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
