Description

How can I make a difference?


As a care assistant, you will work with the residents closely on a daily basis, assisting them to live their lives to the full.

You will assist them with all of their needs according to their wishes. Becoming a friend and having fun with them is one of themost important parts of the role.


Duties will include:

  • Ensuring health and wellbeing of residents.
  • Providing personal care and emotional support.
  • Medication administration.
  • Participating in stimulating activities.
  • Involving residents in a person centred approach.

  • Ability to respond to people's emotional, psychological, social and spiritual needs
  • The confidence to work as part of a team in a sometimes challenging environment, using your own initiative
