About Prestige Nursing & Care Plymouth – Proud to be rated ‘Outstanding’ with the Care Quality Commission (CQC)
Here at Prestige Nursing & Care Plymouth, the most important factor in everything we do is that the people we support, and our staff team, are happy and safe. We are rated outstanding with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). We are a friendly and supportive team with quality at the forefront of everything we do and most importantly, we care as much as you.
What our client is looking for:
We have a vacancy within our Domiciliary Care team and are looking for a patient and calm individual to assist people in their own homes. We support people with varying needs; some visits are just for companionship or to help with light housework – other visits are to help with personal care and to administer medication. We support some people at home and others whose visit is to enable them to access the community and attend appointments etc – so for this reason, we do need a driver with access to your own car.
You don’t need to have experience in Care, or even in Domiciliary Care, because we are happy to provide training and support to give you the best possible start for your career in care. We are looking for someone who is really passionate about helping others.
Your role will include:
* Personal care
* Administration of medication
* Shopping
* Accompanying people to attend appointments
* Light housework tasks
* Companionship
* Encouraging fluids and nutrition
* Supporting clients with admin tasks
What we offer:
* A variety of shifts to suit your lifestyle
* You will be paid the National Minimum Wage for all attended training sessions and shadow shifts.
* Work with our own clients, no agency work.
* Blue light card
* Free DBS check
* Enhanced Maternity/Paternity and Adoption schemes
* Continued professional development to support you & your career
* Weekly Pay
* Holiday Pay
* Refer a friend with the Care Friends mobile app and earn extra money – T&C’s apply
* Employee Assistance line – available 24/7 and fully confidential for our staff
* Support from your local branch team and out of hours support.
In line with CQC & Care Inspectorate regulations, we require and will undertake Enhanced DBS/PVG, Right to Work, Reference and Employment History checks in line with Government guidelines for this role and safer recruitment best practice.
As a Company, we are unable to provide Sponsorship for overseas candidates. Applicants must have proof of right to work in the UK.
