Job description

Care Assistant– More Than a Job, It’s a Calling

Abigail Lodge Care Home

Hours: 38.5

Are you the kind of person who remembers how someone takes their tea?

Do you believe a 5-minute chat can brighten someone’s whole day?

Can you bring compassion, reliability, and maybe a great playlist?

If you said YES… we want to meet you.

No two days are the same — and that’s the beauty of it.

You’ll be:

• Supporting people with daily routines
• Helping with personal care (with dignity and respect)
• Preparing meals and sharing meaningful moments
• Providing companionship and emotional support
• Being the reason someone smiles today

This isn’t just care work. It’s life-changing work.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need years of experience — you need the right heart.

We’d love you to have:

• Kindness that can’t be taught
• Reliability and a strong sense of responsibility
• A willingness to learn (full training provided!)
• A driving licence (if required for community role)

Care experience is great — but not essential. We hire for attitude and train for skill.

What You’ll Get

Because caring for others means we care for you too.

Supportive, friendly team culture

Flexible shifts that fit around your life

In a world full of screens and automation, real human connection matters more than ever. Care assistants are everyday heroes — and the demand for compassionate professionals continues to grow.

This is a career with purpose, stability, and heart.

Be someone’s reason to feel safe, valued and heard.
