People are at the very heart of Prestige, and we want to make life better for them. As a Care Assistant, you’ll join us in our continued efforts to improve lives.

We are recruiting caring, warm-hearted Complex Care staff to join our team! Could this role be perfect for you?

Our well-established team supports valued service users in their own homes. This rewarding role allows you to make a real difference in people’s lives.

We are seeking new staff to join a highly trained team supporting individuals with complex needs in their own homes. Our client has a degenerative medical condition similar to Cerebral Palsy, so some understanding of the condition will be beneficial.

This person lives in the GL4 area. We are looking for experienced support workers for day shifts each week. Day shifts are staffed 2:1.

What we offer:

• A variety of shifts to suit your lifestyle
• Paid for all attended training sessions and shadow shifts at the National Minimum Wage
• Work directly with our clients, no agency work
• Blue light card
• Free DBS check
• Enhanced Maternity/Paternity and Adoption schemes
• Continued professional development to support your career
• Weekly pay
• Holiday pay
• Earn extra money by referring a friend via the Care Friends mobile app (T&Cs apply)
• 24/7 confidential Employee Assistance line
• Support from your local branch team and out-of-hours support

Your role will include:

• Providing personal care and support
• Assisting with daily activities and domestic duties
• Maintaining and updating reports such as care plans

In line with CQC & Care Inspectorate regulations, we will undertake Enhanced DBS/PVG, Right to Work, Reference, and Employment History checks as per Government guidelines for this role. Due to the nature of these checks, there may be some extension to timelines. We are committed to providing a safe, fair, and balanced environment for all clients and staff, promoting equal opportunities and challenging discrimination.

As a company, we cannot sponsor overseas candidates. Applicants must have proof of the right to work in the UK. If you have lived outside the UK for more than a year in the last 5 years, an overseas police check dated within the last 3 months is required.
