As a Senior Care Assistant, we understand how crucial your role is to our Home.

You’ll be motivated, positive and with great interpersonal skills, and you enjoy working in a close-knit team.

  • Day-to-day responsibility for running a unit
  • Supporting with clinical duties, including supporting the nurse to observe, issue medication, review care plans and accurate record keeping
  • Driving and managing a team of Care Assistants, including responsible for all shift handovers of the teams
  • Helping with training and supervision of new staff members so they feel welcomed and supported
