We are looking for a dedicated Care Worker to join our team, providing support and care to older people. As a key worker for designated service users, you will be responsible for developing and reviewing care plans, assisting with personal and intimate care, and helping with the use of any aids or equipment. You will also liaise with health professionals as needed, support mental and physical activities, and maintain a high standard of personal environment and effects.

Your duties will include monitoring nutritional needs, answering emergency calls, and maintaining professional communication with visitors. You will need to comply with all Health and Safety regulations, participate in staff meetings, and work on a rota basis including weekends and evenings. It is also essential to adhere to CrossReach’s policies and financial procedures while undergoing necessary training.

Ideal candidates will hold or be working towards an SVQ 3 in Social Care and have basic computer literacy skills. A respect for Christian worship and facilitating service users' attendance at worship is important. If you are committed to delivering high-quality care and making a difference, we encourage you to apply.

CrossReach has been at the forefront of high quality social care for over 150 years, providing loving care to people of all ages and supporting them to live life to the full whatever their circumstances. During that time, we have worked hard to understand the needs of the people who turn to us for help and with them have been at the forefront of pioneering services which have literally changed thousands of lives for the better.

Today we are one of the largest social care providers in Scotland, with experience across a broad range of services. We are still growing, learning, and improving, thanks to the incredible people we have the privilege to support, and all those who support us. We are part of the Church of Scotland and aim to provide social care services and specialist resources in Christ’s name to further the caring work of the Church to people in challenging circumstances. 

As we do our work in Christ’s name you must be respectful of our Christian Ethos and be able to work within it.

This post requires you to be a member of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme and undertake the necessary vetting checks. You will also be required to be registered with SSSC and it is your professional responsibility to ensure that you meet the standards and criteria for registration. 

We have a legal obligation to ensure that we do not employ any worker who has not been granted the relevant permission to work in the UK. This permission is without exception granted by UK Visas and Immigrations. We are required to check the entitlement to work in the UK of all prospective employees, regardless of nationality or job category. 

We are committed to ensuring that we attract, retain, and develop the very best people to build a diverse and talented team and we recognise that every individual’s unique background, experience and ability contributes to our success. We aim to create an inclusive and inspiring environment where individuals feel valued and respected and where people can belong, thrive and be their very best, whoever they are.
