Please note, this role is Bank (zero contracted hours) to cover sickness and holidays.
In your role as a Bank 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 single 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.
Right now, we're looking for an enthusiastic and committed Care Assistant to join the team at our care home. Whether providing long or 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'll 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'll deliver care that genuinely comes from the heart, ensuring residents maintain their dignity and individuality, and engaging in activities within the care home.
Whether helping someone with limited mobility, offering emotional support to a distressed resident, or providing end-of-life care, your priority will always be their well-being. Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility; therefore, you should be able to recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect, and know the appropriate actions to take. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training and undertake additional relevant training, seeking advice and reporting concerns as necessary.
