Job Summary
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're looking for an enthusiastic and committed Care Assistant to join our team. 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 in adult social care. You should be able to recognise signs that may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You will have the ability to seek advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.

We are also enhancing the way we support residents through digital care planning. This technology helps streamline care and improve outcomes, and we’re looking for team members who are comfortable with technology or open to learning.
