In your role as a Care Assistant at HC-One, you'll value kindness above all. It touches upon every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every 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.
We are currently looking for an enthusiastic and committed Care Assistant to join our care home team. Whether providing long-term, short-term, convalescence, respite, or palliative care, our focus is on delivering the highest quality service at all times.
As a Care Assistant, under the guidance of a Registered Nurse, you will be responsible for the physical, emotional, and social well-being of our residents. Your duties include assisting residents with personal care activities such as washing, personal hygiene, dressing, and helping with meals. You will deliver care that truly comes from the heart, ensuring residents maintain their dignity and individuality by engaging in activities within the care home.
You may help residents with limited mobility to learn to use aids, offer emotional support to confused or distressed residents, or provide end-of-life care, always prioritizing their well-being. Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility; therefore, it is essential to recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect and know the appropriate actions to take. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training relevant to their role and undertake additional training as needed.
About HC-One: At HC-One, kindness is more than a word—it's a way of life. We believe caring for people means caring about what matters most to them, supporting them to live their best lives. We foster five key qualities—curiosity, compassion, creativity, courage, and dependability—what we call "Kindness the HC-One Way."
We champion inclusivity, creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered. Our diverse workforce helps us better reflect the communities we serve. We are enhancing our support for residents through digital care planning, streamlining care, improving outcomes, and making daily tasks more efficient. We support our colleagues' personal and professional development with clear career pathways, ongoing training, and postgraduate programs.
