Our residents mostly require 1:1 supervision throughout the day and night, but most of all require someone with good values and a happy disposition to provide company and a listening ear.

We are offering competitive rates of pay, pay progression, career development opportunities, a company pension and full training and support will be provided. We are looking for staff to work a flexible rota which may include some night shifts. Previous experience in the care industry is not essential as full mandatory training is provided, however it is desirable. Monthly supervision and support will be provided. Medical Insurance is provided once you have competed your probation and this pays a contribution to any medical or dental procedures you mat require.

The clinical staff will all work a pattern of 4 days on and 4 days off meaning your working days will only be half of the year! Promoting a healthy work/life balance.
