Overview
At HC-One, kindness is at the heart of everything we do across our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Our residents are people with their own stories to tell, and by joining us you\'ll have the chance to give something back while helping them live with dignity and purpose.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed Care Assistant. Working under the guidance of a Registered Nurse, you\'ll support the physical, emotional and social wellbeing of our residents. This includes personal care such as washing, dressing, hygiene and meals, as well as helping with daily activities in the home.
You\'ll deliver care that comes from the heart — making sure residents never lose their individuality. Whether you\'re supporting someone with limited mobility, offering comfort to a resident who is distressed, or providing compassionate end-of-life care, you\'ll always put their wellbeing first.
Safeguarding is everyone\'s responsibility and it is important that you are able to recognise signs of possible abuse, harm or neglect and know what to do if there are concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
