4 weeks ago
Job summary
Come and join one of the UK's largest providers of complex care. We proudly employ over 4000+ people - no matter what your experience, we have jobs for everyone.
Main duties of the job
At Active Care Group, we believe that recovery is more than just a physical process - it's about rediscovering the passions that define us. Take Andrew, for example. After an Acute Ischaemic Stroke in March 2023, his future as an artist and tutor seemed uncertain. But through the compassionate care and support he received at Blackheath Brain Injury Rehabilitation Centre, Andrew not only regained his strength but also reignited his love for art, even holding an exhibition on the ward. His journey culminated in ringing the Recovery Bell, symbolising his triumph over adversity.

We have a collaborative and holistic approach to care underpinned by proven clinical and therapeutic expertise. We specialise in supporting young people and adults with complex needs to make positive progress and lead happier, more independent lives.
