Social network you want to login/join with:

Older People’s Services has 8 residential services across Fife, with a team based in each service. You can view each of the service locations, listed at the top of this advert, and will be asked to provide your location preference at interview.

The successful candidate will work on a relief / casual basis within the care home, which includes early shifts, late shifts, and a period of night duty. Unsocial hours will be paid at the basic rate plus 1/3 hourly rate.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for skilled and enthusiastic individuals to join our care home team in Fife Council’s Residential and Day Services.

We are looking for motivated and driven individuals with good values and a genuine interest in the care and support of older people within the care homes. This will involve providing positive support and encouragement for people to make their own choices and decisions in all aspects of their daily lives, as well as providing flexible support to enable service users to access activities and achieve their personal outcomes. This will involve promoting social inclusion by working with service users to maximise their personal independence, health, wellbeing, and access to service opportunities in their local communities.

The care homes in Fife provide ongoing care and support to vulnerable older people. The care home also supports a respite, STAR unit, and a day service.

Fife Council is committed to delivering services that are responsive, reliable, efficient, and effective.
