Make every shift matter
At Maple Tree Court, care is not rushed, routine, or one-size-fits-all. It’s thoughtful, relationship-led, and centred on dignity. We’re looking for a part-time Care Assistant who genuinely enjoys supporting older people and wants to be part of a close, supportive team where their work is truly valued.
About Maple Tree Court
Maple Tree Court is a welcoming and well-established care home in Stoke-on-Trent, known for its warm atmosphere and strong sense of community. Residents are at the heart of everything we do, and colleagues take real pride in creating a place that feels like home, not just a workplace.

5. Working closely with colleagues to deliver consistent, person-centred care
