Description

You:

You're a caring, positive person. You've got experience as a cleaner or domestic assistant and ideally, you've already worked in a care home. You've got a good basic education. This should include GCSE English and Maths (or the equivalent). You also know about health and safety regulations. You're a good team player - polite, presentable and mindful of older people's privacy.

When you join Care UK, you'll get excellent support, quality training and fast-track career opportunities from one of the UK's leading care home providers.

Your role:

Residents are at the heart of everything we do. And the care home is their home. So your role in keeping it clean and tidy is vital.

As part of a friendly team led by the Head Housekeeper, you'll be responsible for carrying out all cleaning duties.

You'll make sure daily and deep cleaning tasks are carried out to a high standard, complying with infection control guidelines.

It's important that you respect the privacy and individual needs of the residents. You'll also need to be comfortable doing some paperwork and re-stocking cleaning supplies as required. It's a rewarding role and a supportive workplace where we all pull together.

Bank holiday enhancements
Quality training to develop your skills

About Care UK:

We run over 120 homes and day clubs across the UK. We provide residential, nursing, dementia and end-of-life care for older people.

As one of the UK's leading care home providers, our goal is to help every employee fulfil his or her potential - with first-class training and support.

The Potteries care home is located in the suburb of Broadstone, just a few miles from the centre of the beautiful seaside town of Poole.
The care home is a short bus ride into Poole town centre and its many shops, cafes and beaches.

The Potteries, which opened in October 2013, is a purpose-built care home with all the latest facilities and a focus on luxurious living.

On the ground floor, close to our reception you'll discover a contemporary coffee shop, a cinema where we regularly show movie classics and a hair salon where residents can enjoy a pamper and a chat with the hairdresser.

Like all Care UK care staff, our experienced and dedicated care teams take pride in delivering the very highest quality residential, dementia and nursing care.

They get to know every resident - their likes, dislikes and their life stories - and then create a personalised care plan that enables your loved one to maintain their independence and continue doing the things they love.

They can enjoy activities based on their lifelong hobbies and interests, or even try something new.
