HC-One, Sunderland, England, United Kingdom
About The Role
In your role as an Activities Co-ordinator at HC-One, Kindness will be at the core of everything you do. It touches upon every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our Residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.
As an Activities Co-ordinator you will plan and implement activities that delight our Residents. You will help the Home Manager organise essential fundraising events and, whether you’re giving Residents the confidence to socialise more effectively, developing activity ideas based on Residents’ hobbies, or involving the care home team, you will approach your work with kindness above all else.
HC-One is looking for someone with a background working with vulnerable individuals, ideally developing activity programmes. You should bring brilliant, positive energy, a natural ability to get along with people, strong planning and organisational skills, and good IT skills. You will communicate with Residents and colleagues in a considerate and kind manner.
Safeguarding is a shared responsibility. You should recognise signs of possible abuse, harm or neglect and know what to do if concerns arise. All colleagues attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and may undertake additional training in related areas. You should be able to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
