Who we're looking for

Ideally, you'll have experience of working in a care/dementia setting or you may have a Level 3 in Health & Social Care (or equivalent), however, this isn't essential as full training will be provided.

Above all, you'll be passionate about caring for others, respecting people's choices and always putting their safety and welfare first.

A great listener with a positive outlook, you're confident talking to both residents and their families and understand that confidentiality is very important in what we do.
