Description

Parklands Care Homes is a multi award winning care company and one of the largest independent care home providers in the north of Scotland.

It operates ten care homes across Moray and the Highlands, with a number of new care facilities planned in the coming years as part of a multi-million pound investment plan.

Parklands homes offer a range of services including residential, respite, nursing, personal and palliative care.

Care needs are always tailored to the individual, and we see our residents and staff as part of the Parklands 'family'.

Our friendly and dedicated staff go the extra mile to ensure that residents enjoy their stay at Parklands and live happy, fulfilled lives.

To complete our dedicated care team in our Innis Mhor Care Home in Tain, we are recruiting a Night Care Assistant for permanent, relief cover.
