About the role
This role goes beyond completing a task list; it is about being there for people in their day-to-day lives, supporting them with comfort, companionship and dignity, and being there when it matters. We will support you if you're looking to change direction or are new to care, helping you build a career in the sector. With training, guidance and time to develop, we invest in helping you grow in confidence and capability.
Personal Care
Personal care is an essential part of being a Care Assistant, ensuring that those you support can maintain their dignity at all times. This includes helping with things like washing, dressing, bathroom visits and always respecting personal choices and preferences. For example, you might support someone in getting ready for the day by helping them dress and ensuring they feel comfortable and confident in the outfit they have chosen to wear. While these responsibilities may feel personal, they are crucial in providing compassionate and respectful care; you empower individuals to live as independently as possible.
Being a Care Assistant can be the beginning of a long‑term career in care. It's a role where you can support others, learn, gain experience and develop over time. Many of our team go on to become Senior Carers, Team Leaders or Care Practitioners, while others take their experience in a different direction, such as administration.
Interview Process
Our interview process gives you the opportunity to make sure Gibraltar Nursing Home is the right place for you. We'll start by talking you through the basics over the phone, followed by an online interview.
