  • Medication Management: Dispensing medication accurately and maintaining detailed records.
This role requires a mix of practical care and supervisory responsibilities, so you'll need to feel confident managing multiple tasks while keeping residents' wellbeing at the forefront.

What makes you the ideal candidate?

  • Has experience working in a care home or similar environment.
  • Has experience supervising and mentoring a team (preferred).
  • Holds a Level 3 Health and Social Care qualification (or is committed to achieving one).
