About The Role
Schedule: 10am-4pm, 2 days per week, days TBC
In your role as an Activities Co-ordinator at HC-One, kindness will be at the core of everything you do. 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.
As an Activities Co-ordinator, you will plan and implement activities that will delight our Residents. You will help the Home Manager organize essential fundraising events. Whether you’re giving our Residents the confidence to socialize more effectively, working on a new activity idea based on Residents’ hobbies, or getting the rest of the care home team involved, you’ll do so with a sense of kindness above all else.
HC-One is looking for someone with a background working with vulnerable individuals, ideally developing activity programs. Beyond that, it’s all about your brilliant, positive energy and natural ability to get along with people. You’ll have great planning, organizational, and IT skills, and be able to manage your time effectively. Whenever you communicate with a Resident or co-worker, you’ll be truly considerate and kind.
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility; therefore, it is important that you can recognize the signs that may indicate possible abuse, harm, or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
We’ll provide full training, so it’s a great opportunity to learn something new. In return, you will enjoy access to a huge variety of benefits and services to support your physical and psychological well-being. Throughout your career as an Activities Co-ordinator, we will invest in you, and you will enjoy additional support and benefits including:
