About the role
Our Senior Health Care Assistants work closely with the Nurse in Charge and lead our Care Teams in supporting every aspect of our residents’ day-to-day lives.
No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
* supporting people with their personal care
* assisting people at meal times
* understanding individual health and wellbeing needs
* encouraging and supporting people to take part in social activities, both in and out of the home
* promoting choice, dignity, independence and respect
* leading, motivating and supporting a team of care colleagues
* ensuring that care documentation is completed to a high standard.
We have higher-than-average staffing levels when compared to other care providers, giving you more time to spend with the people you support.
About you
Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork.
You’re also:
* caring, kind, understanding and calm
* able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations
* energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can-do attitude
* a great listener and communicator, able to build trust and rapport with people
* comfortable working on your own initiative – but you know when to escalate
* a motivating team leader.
To apply for this role, you must have relevant experience, a Level 3 qualification in Health and Social care, plus Maths and English at GCSE Grade C or above (or relevant functional skills qualification).
What we offer
We offer great rewards and perks including:
* regular supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
