Job Description
Activities Co-ordinator
Care Home
£11.50 per hour
Part time 24-30 hours per week
We are recruiting on behalf of a family-run, community driven care provider with award-winning homes and a compassionate team that provides person centred care. Having launched in 2019, our client has four homes across the South and Southwest of England and plans to continue its journey of growth.
If you are a kind, warm and compassionate person and want to have a positive impact on people's lives, then working as an Activities Co-ordinator will be the right role for you.
The successful applicant will:
* Network and develop relationships with the community and local businesses to develop a volunteer base and collaborate in future events.
* Develop relationships with relatives to help support residents better and provide personalised activities to engage each of them.
* Come up with stimulants and varied activities for the residents.
* Arrange trips and excursions involving as many residents as possible.
* Guarantee that risk assessments are carried out on the activities inside and outside and ensure the safety of the participants.
* Create and distribute through email an activities calendar and newsletter
What we are looking for:
Someone who can deliver a level of care that truly comes from the heart, making sure our residents never lose their dignity or sense of individuality as you get involved in general activities within the care home. And, whether you are helping someone with limited mobility to learn to use an aid, offering emotional support to a confused or distressed resident or delivering care to someone at the end of their life, you will always have their well-being in mind above anything else.
If this is of interest to you then please get in touch for further details.
Requirements

* Strong communicator and influencer.
* Energetic and hard-working.
* Flexible and adaptable to change.
