Job Description
The care sector is such a rich and rewarding place to work and we aim to make a meaningful difference in our care homes. We always look for the kindest and most resilient people to come and support our residents – no two days will be the same and you will receive the learning and development you need to thrive. We are looking for enthusiastic, committed, flexible staff whose focus is on providing the highest quality service at all times. Is that you?
Currently we have a vacancy to join our team for Day shifts at our Residential Care Home, Wigmore, Gillingham, Kent either part time or full time with alternate weekend working 36 - 48 hour contract available. Unfortunately we do not offer sponsorship at this present time.
In your role as Healthcare Assistant at Hawthorn Manor Residential Care Home you’ll value one thing above all - Kindness. Every single person who works here understands that our Residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining us you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.
Hourly rate is subject to experience and qualifications.
About You
As a Healthcare Assistant under the guidance of a senior member of staff you will be taking responsibility for the physical and emotional well-being and social needs of our Residents. Assisting Residents with personal care activities such as washing, personal hygiene, dressing and assisting with meals delivering a level of care that truly comes from the heart. It’s about making sure our Residents never lose their dignity or sense of individuality as you get involved in general activities within the care home. And, whether you’re helping someone with limited mobility to learn to use an aid, offering emotional support to a confused or distressed Resident or delivering care to someone at the end of their life, you’ll always have their well-being in mind above anything else.
Experience preferred but for the right candidate; we’ll provide full training and the opportunity to gain qualifications once probation successfully completed and of course ongoing training, so, it’s a great opportunity to learn something new.
We are passionate about ensuring that our current and future Colleagues can be their true selves, and that our workforce represents the communities we serve. We prioritise inclusive working practices and invite applicants from all backgrounds into our RCB Healthcare family and we are committed to providing the quickest possible turnaround from the point of making you a job offer to you starting with us on day one.
