Job description
We must advise, we do not provide a relocation package or UK Visa Employment Sponsorship.
If you enjoy good company and you are kind and compassionate about caring for others, we would love to hear from you. No day is ever the same here and we pride ourselves on offering quality care and above all creating lots of smiles.
Being a team player is what we ask of all our staff; you can one minute be providing personal care and the next you can be engaging in reminiscing sessions with our residents. When the weather is fine, we here at The Old Vicarage make the most of the sunshine and we enjoy providing creative arts and crafts sessions within our beautiful garden.
If you enjoy wonderful views and lots of fresh air, we think this job may be for you! Our residents love to go for quiet strolls around Allithwaite and one of their favourite things to do is to appreciate the spectacular view of Morecambe Bay whilst sitting on the church bench
