Activities Co-ordinator

1 day ago


East Lothian, United Kingdom HC-One Full time


This is for a Part-Time role for 16 hours per week. In your role as an Activities Co-ordinator at HC-One, Kindness will be at the core of everything you do. It touches upon every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our Residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One you'll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.



As an Activities Co-ordinator it will mean planning and implementing the kinds of activities that will delight our Residents. Not to mention helping the Home Manager to organise essential fundraising events. And, whether you're giving our Residents the confidence to socialise more effectively, working on a new activity idea based on Residents' hobbies, or getting the rest of the care home team involved - you'll do so with a sense of kindness above all else.

HC-One are looking for someone with a background working with vulnerable individuals, ideally developing activity programmes. Beyond that, it's all about your brilliant, positive energy and natural ability to get along with people. You'll have great planning, organisational and IT skills and be able to manage your time effectively. And, whenever you communicate with a Resident or co-worker, you'll be truly considerate and kind.

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility and therefore it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.

We are also enhancing the way we support residents through digital care planning. This technology is helping us streamline care, improve outcomes, and make daily tasks more efficient.
