Job description

Who are we:

Curaa is a family-run, community-driven care provider with award-winning homes and a compassionate team that provides person-centred care. Having launched in 2019, Curaa has grown its footprint across the South and Southwest of England and plans to continue this journey in the future.

Our commitment to excellence is driven by our core values of respect, integrity, community, and learning.

Respect: At Curaa, we believe in treating everyone with dignity and respect. We value diverse perspectives and foster an inclusive environment where every team member feels valued and heard.

Integrity: Our commitment to ethical practices ensures that we build trust with our residents, partners, and each other. We do what is right, especially when no one is watching.

Community: We support each other and work together to achieve common goals. Our sense of community extends beyond our office walls, as we actively engage with and contribute to the broader society.

Learning: By fostering a culture of learning, we ensure that our team remains innovative and adaptable in a constantly evolving world.

What we are looking for:

Someone who can deliver a level of care that truly comes from the heart, making sure our residents never lose their dignity or sense of individuality as you get involved in general activities within the care home. And, whether you are helping someone with limited mobility to learn to use an aid, offering emotional support to a confused or distressed resident or delivering care to someone at the end of their life, you will always have their well-being in mind above anything else.

Requirements

• Strong communicator and influencer.
• Energetic and hard-working.
• Adaptable to change.
