About the role
Bank vacancy also available. 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.
