Job description

Care Assistant

Location: Ermine House, Lincoln

Pay rate: £12.77

Contracted Hours: 2x 28

We offer various shifts and hours so get in touch and we can help you find the job you want!

Ermine House offers compassionate, individualised residential and respite care for up to 44 residents in a homely, comfortable environment. Located on the Ermine Estate in Lincoln, the home is only a mile and a half from the city centre. It is close to local shops, library, church and thriving community. The home benefits from a direct bus route into Lincoln city centre.

We are looking for you to work as a care assistant making a real difference to our residents lives every day. Along with supporting daily routines and personal care (washing, bathing, supporting toilet use) we are looking for the right people to genuinely care for our residents and create a happy fulfilled life for them. Some days may be challenging but you will laugh, have fun and make lasting memories. You’ll become part of our extended family too, bringing kindness, exceptional care and dignity to our care homes.

We are looking for both experienced carers and those that are new to care to build our teams with diverse people who can bring all sorts of life experience to the job. We provide induction training and support, with ongoing development opportunities for you to really build a career with us. You will be a great communicator and able to build relationships and positive working and living environments. We’d love you to love your job.
