About the Role
As a Trainee Nursing Assistant at HC‑One, you will be a role model as you lead by example to embody the quality of supreme kindness in every aspect of your work in our Memory Care, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. You will be joining our night shift team, working 4 shifts per week and alternate weekends. Everyone 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.
For you, that will mean making sure our residents’ care planning arrangements are delivered impeccably. We want to offer our residents a sense of choice and independence and you’ll be the person to ensure we do. Whether you’re taking up a nursing task delegated to you, reporting an accident, or spending time with someone who’s demonstrating symptoms of dementia, you’ll always have resident wellbeing in mind above anything else.
