Job description

About The Role
In your role as a Care Assistant at HC-One, you’ll value kindness above all. It touches upon every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell.

Note: We have only 44-hour contracts available, working NIGHTS, shifts are 8 till 8.

By joining HC-One you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

Right now, we’re looking for an enthusiastic and committed Care Assistant to join the team at our care home. Whether we're providing long or short-term, convalescence, respite or palliative care, our focus is on providing the highest quality service at all times.

As a Care Assistant under the guidance of a Registered Nurse, you will be responsible for the physical, emotional, and social well-being of our residents. Your duties include assisting residents with personal care activities such as washing, personal hygiene, dressing, and assisting with meals.

You will deliver care that comes from the heart, ensuring our residents never lose their dignity or sense of individuality. This involves participating in activities within the care home, supporting residents with mobility aids, providing emotional support, and caring for those at the end of their life, always prioritizing their well-being.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. It is important that you can recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect and know the appropriate actions to take. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training relevant to their role and undertake additional training as needed. You should be able to seek advice and report concerns, including escalation if necessary.
