Job description

Overview

As a Deputy Home Manager you will ensure the level of clinical care offered goes beyond professional standards and statutory, regulatory and legal requirements. You will provide specialist nursing support and advice, take responsibility for resident care in the Home Manager’s absence and supervise/coach colleagues to provide a service that is unparalleled in its empathy for resident issues.

Main duties of the job

HC-One is looking for a Deputy Home Manager with a valid PIN, knowledge of National Standards and the NMC code of practice. You should have a background in person-centred care planning within a care home. You will be a great mentor who can manage time effectively and keep meaningful records. When you communicate with a resident or co-worker, you will be truly considerate and kind. You will value kindness above all, as it drives every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every person who works here understands that our residents are people with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One you will have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

About us

At HC-One, our purpose is to support those in our care to lead their best lives. As the Kind Care Company, it is our mission to provide the kindest support and care to Residents living in our care homes, as we strive to be the first-choice care provider for Families, our Colleagues and Commissioners in each of the communities we serve.

Job responsibilities

As a Deputy Home Manager, you will ensure the level of clinical care goes beyond just professional standards and statutory, regulatory, and legal requirements. This means providing specialist nursing support and advice, taking responsibility for resident care in the Home Manager’s absence, and supervising/coaching colleagues to provide a service that is unparalleled in its empathy for resident issues.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.

To be able to provide the kindest possible care there are 5 qualities that everyone who is part of the HC-One team shows up with, supports and coaches in each other every single day. We call these 5 qualities Kindness the HC-One Way: We are curious and ask questions, look for clues and seek to understand. We are compassionate and try to walk in the shoes of others. We’re creative yet practical, using our imagination to make things happen. We are courageous in how we support residents to live the life they want, and we can always be counted on.

We champion inclusivity, fostering a workplace where everyone feels valued and can be themselves. Our diverse and inclusive workforce allows us to learn from each other and better represent the communities we serve.

Our dedicated, professional colleagues strive to always deliver outstanding care and we care about our talented teams too, supporting them in their professional and personal growth. We are committed to developing people that work for us through robust career pathways, CPD and post graduate programmes. Throughout your career, HC-One will invest in you with great opportunities to progress into regional and national roles.
