At HC-One, we are looking for enthusiastic and committed Care Assistants to join our Flex Force team.

If you’re looking to earn extra money while gaining valuable experience in the care sector, Flex Force is the perfect solution. With contracted hours and guaranteed set pay each month, you’ll enjoy the flexibility to choose shifts that fit around your family life or other commitments. Shifts will be offered across our care homes in the Leeds area, providing a variety of opportunities to shape your working week.

Shifts are scheduled between Monday and Sunday and may include days, nights, and weekends. Flexibility is key to being a Flex Force Care Assistant, as it allows you to adapt to the needs of our homes while maintaining control over your schedule.

The homes include Aberford Hall, LS8 2QU; Acacia Court, LS28 7BW; Augustus Court, LS25 1HG; Colton Lodges, LS15 9HH; & Rievaulx House, LS12 4LL.

About The Role

As a Flexible Care Assistant at HC-One, you’ll value kindness above all. It touches every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every team member understands that our residents are people with their own stories. By joining HC-One, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give back to these individuals.

Whether providing long- or short-term care, including respite and palliative care, our focus is on delivering the kindest and highest quality care.

Delivering care from the heart involves ensuring residents retain their dignity and individuality, engaging in activities, assisting with mobility, offering emotional support, and caring for residents at the end of their lives, always prioritizing their well-being.

2. Helping residents with limited mobility.
3. Taking responsibility for the well-being of residents on and off-site.

A driving license with access to a vehicle is advantageous but not essential.

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. You should recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect and know how to act. All colleagues must attend safeguarding training and undertake additional relevant training. You should be able to seek advice and report concerns, including escalation if necessary.
