St Hilda's Priory is a small and friendly care home, set within a religious community for Anglican nuns and those associated with the religious community, on the outskirts of Whitby. The Priory sits within extensive grounds and gardens with views of the surrounding area. It is within walking distance of Whitby town centre and bus routes to both Scarborough and Middlesbrough.
The role involves all aspects of holistic care and support for our elderly, frail or rehabilitating Sisters and residents such as personal care, mobility and transfer, food and nutrition, emotional, psychological, social, and physical care needs. We deliver care with a Christian focus supporting both religious and spiritual needs.
Candidates should ideally have some experience in care, although this is not essential as training can be given. They should be able to work independently or as part of a team, have good communication and interpersonal skills and a willingness to learn. We encourage personal and professional development with opportunities to complete further training.
We operate a 12- hour shift system, to cover the full 24- hour period. This role is primarily to cover day shifts; however, candidates must be willing to work over the full 24-hour period, including night duty when there is a service need. You will be joining a small well established team of dedicated care staff working in a small two- three person team each shift. Working pattern will be two 12 hour shifts and one 6 hour shift each week and will cover weekends and bank holidays.
