We see it as our mission to ensure that everyone in our care are supported and look forward to every day with us, and their well-being is maintained through enjoying the simple but essential pleasures of good food and company in a warm and homely environment.

As a Care Assistant you will be:

  • Delivering quality personal care to each of our residents
  • Supporting them with daily activities such as washing, dressing, eating and maintaining personal hygiene
  • Understanding our resident’s communication needs and adapting your communication to each individual, e.g. sounds, tones, body language

  • Strong communicator and influencer
  • Energetic and hard-working
  • Flexible and adaptable to change
  • Passionate about offering superior services and want to make a difference
  • A glass half full person, with a sense of humour and a positive outlook

If you possess these qualities, or have worked in a retail, supermarket, warehouse or other customer facing environments then no experience of working as a Care Assistant is necessary. We provide you with excellent learning, development and support opportunities, to equip you with the knowledge and skills to make a real difference in the role.
