HC-One Careline is a front line role based in the central support office in Darlington. We are, in most cases, the first impression for the company and aid in supporting HC-One's vision to provide the kindest care in the UK. We help families to find homes suitable to their relatives' care needs by supporting them from initial enquiry through to admission. Along with the help we provide to families, we work alongside our homes to ensure enquiries are updated correctly and efficiently. We are currently looking for a professional, empathetic and caring individual to answer enquiries from relatives, professionals and other care home stakeholders.
The role will involve taking incoming calls from families searching for care, responding to web enquiries, and ensuring they are followed up in accordance with HC-One guidelines and timescales. There is a variety of shifts spanning Monday to Sunday between the hours of 8am till 7pm.
You will have excellent telephone and communication skills, as the role will also involve ensuring that all calls are answered promptly and appropriately. You will need basic IT skills and a willingness to learn. Ideally, you will have previous experience working within a customer service environment and have some knowledge or personal experience of placing a loved one in care; however, full training will be provided for the right person.
Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility; therefore, it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which 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 to 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.
What HC-One offers:
* Full time and part time hours, spanning Monday to Sunday, 8am to 8pm.
