Job description
Working pattern;
(06:30am - 14:00) - to include alternative weekend working, with two days off during the week.
We are looking to recruit a number of home care support assistants to join our rapidly growing team within Spalding and the surrounding areas. If you feel that you have a genuine desire to help others, and wish to support their independence, we would love to hear from you. Experience is not essential. We simply require you to have a caring nature, and the drive and determination to be an outstanding member of our support team. We work in small structured teams, and offer continuous support to you in all aspects of your role. Bloomsbury Home Care recognises that its carers play a vital role in delivering high standards of care in the community, and that's why we not only support our clients, but we'll be here to support you too.
PLEASE NOTE, CAR DRIVERS ARE ESSENTIAL IN THIS ROLE.
Along with social and domestic support, the role can also involve providing personal care. Duties will vary with each client you visit. A morning client may require support with preparing breakfast and administering medication, whereas another client may require some assistance with getting dressed for the day. You may have a client who likes to go shopping once a week, or a client who simply wishes to watch a film. The role of support assistant is varied but extremely rewarding.
Here's how we can benefit you;
- Excellent pay rates
- Bank holiday pay of £16.69 (includes attendance bonus of 5%)
- Monthly attendance bonus of 5% (included in the rates advertised)
- Paid mileage
- Fully paid induction and training
- Mental health and financial support from The Care Workers Charity
- Free uniform and PPE supplies
- Wage top-up scheme (friends referral app)
- Blue Light Card acceptance
- On-going training and development to support your progression within the company
- QCF opportunities to enhance your chosen career within social care
