At Hamberley, we believe that our residents deserve something ‘Extra Special, Every Day’ and we're recruiting for a Care Assistant to help us achieve our goals.

At Lovell Place Care Home , our Care Assistants are called Homemakers. More than support workers, care assistants or healthcare assistants they are carers and companions all in one. They have the time to get to know our residents and are trusted to give each person the care they need, in the way they like.

Joining us at Lovell Place, our luxury care home that provides residential, dementia, and nursing care for older people, you'll be part of a team that is genuinely passionate about the health and well-being of our residents.

Working Pattern: 12 hour shifts and working alternate weekends on a rota basis.

We offer our Care Assistants - our Homemakers:

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• 28 days holiday (inclusive of Bank Holidays)
• Quality bonus scheme linked to CQC rating
• A supportive and collaborative working environment
• Opportunities for professional development and training
• Access to high street discounts via our mobile friendly HapiApp benefits platform
• Free onsite parking available
• Unlimited Refer a Friend Bonus - up to £750 per referral - t&cs apply*
• Employee Assistance Programme, occupational health support and wellbeing services

Be different be a Homemaker

Be at the heart of our award winning homemaker care mode. A Homemaker is a unique caring role for a unique person, where you can care with a difference.

• A varied role where no two days are the same. Homemakers, our name for care assistants, care for individual people in the way a family member might care for someone in their home. We don’t do timetabled task-based care we care for each individual in the way that works best for them. Whether that’s administering medication, helping make someone’s bed, arranging a family meal with their loved ones or taking them to the beauty salon, you’ll always be doing something different. Our Homemakers focus on the tiny details that make our residents unique, and tailor care to each and every individual.
• A chance to make a real difference to our residents’ lives. Often healthcare assistants, care assistants and domiciliary care assistants find they don’t get to spend enough time with the people they care for to make a real difference. Not at Hamberley. As a Homemaker you have fewer people to care for, but you spend more time with them. It’s a more satisfying and fulfilling role that is better for our residents. That’s why the model has won awards.
• Excellent opportunities for learning and development. We will support you with all the training you need, including NVQ qualifications and further clinical training if you want to specialise in areas like dementia and nutrition.
• Supportive team environment. Being kind and supportive to each other is key to our ability to show kindness and companionship to our residents. We truly believe this across all parts of our organisation. It’s just one of the reasons that, when people join us, they stay with us.

Could you be part of our team?

We provide full training and induction, so we’re more interested in you as a person than your specific care experience.

You may have experience as a healthcare assistant, care assistant, carer, home care assistant or domiciliary care assistant and are looking for a different approach, a nicer work environment and a more satisfying role.

If you have no work experience in care but are interested in helping people live happy lives, we’ll guide you to a fantastic care assistant career at Hamberley.

What is important is that you have passion, empathy and dedication to help our residents live their lives to the fullest. We will support you with everything else!

If this sounds like you and you’re looking for a fulfilling role that makes a genuine impact in the lives of others, this rewarding career is for you.
