As a Senior Care Assistant, we ask for you to care for our residents as if they are your own family, addressing their physical, psychological, and social needs. Your responsibilities will include assisting residents with personal care activities such as washing, hygiene, dressing, and helping with meals. Additionally, you will be responsible for conducting medication rounds and leading the shift.
We welcome applications from those who have previously worked as a Senior Care Assistant, Care Giver, Homecare Worker, or Community Support Worker. Since we provide full training, candidates without prior senior experience but with a passion for care and a valid qualification are also encouraged to apply.
We are part of a family-run business within the Wood Care Group, and our employees are highly valued.
