About The Role

As a Senior Care Assistant at Littleton Lodge, kindness will be at the core of everything you do. It touches upon every aspect of our care. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. And, by joining us, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

For you, it will mean planning and implementing the kind of care that will give our residents a real sense of security, dignity, and independence. You will get to know our residents and their families – helping to ensure we deliver truly personalised care plans. Leading a team of Care Assistants, you will be responsible for maintaining the highest standards of care and you’ll be a real influence on the rest of the team. Whether you are showing someone how to use a walking frame, helping someone at the end of their life to eat a meal, or talking to a resident’s family on the phone, you’ll do so with a sense of kindness, above anything else. You will be involved in providing essential physical and mental stimulation through a range of social and recreational activities, as well as administering medication.

One of your key responsibilities as Senior Care Assistant is to maintain accurate records of your work and build strong relationships with your team.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and it is important that you can recognize signs of 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 undertake additional training in related areas. You should be able to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if necessary.
