About The Role
Due to expanding the staff team, we are currently recruiting a Care Assistant on a part-time basis to our dedicated team at Lister House, in Ripon, North Yorkshire.
Working pattern: 24 hours per week. 2 nights over 7 days (including weekends and bank holidays).
As part of our award-winning team, you will receive full support with training and your personal development, a generous pension scheme, and employee assistance. We provide care for those who have served in the Armed Forces and their dependants. Our homes provide Nursing Care, Residential Care, Dementia Care, and offer Day Care.
As a Care Assistant, you will play a vital role in delivering compassionate care to our residents, many of whom have served in the Armed Forces. Your responsibilities will include assisting with personal care, supporting residents with their daily routines, and ensuring their comfort and dignity at all times. You will help with mobility, nutrition, and medication as required, and will work closely with colleagues to provide a safe, welcoming environment. Maintaining accurate care records and communicating effectively with residents, families, and healthcare professionals will also be an essential part of your role.
We are looking for individuals who are passionate about delivering excellent care, putting people at the heart of everything they do.

This is your chance to join a supportive, values-driven team and make a positive difference to the lives of those who have served. Your dedication will ensure their contributions are never forgotten.
