PART TIME/FULL TIME/EVENING & WEEKEND CARE ASSISTANTS in Kent, Maidstone

With 14,000 colleagues across 32 care companies, we have one purpose: to make sure no one in need of care is ever forgotten or left behind. We are not only changing lives, we are transforming the care sector. Our people-first approach puts care professionals at the centre of everything we do. Our goal is simple: to be the best place to work in care.

At Care By Us, part of CCH, we live by our values of Community, Courage, and Heart. We are looking for compassionate, reliable people to join our Welham Green Reablement team as Care Assistants to help us drive this mission forward.

Unlike traditional care where you might do things for a client, reablement is all about doing things with them. It is a specialized, short-term, intensive service (typically lasting up to 6 weeks) designed to help individuals recover and relearn daily skills usually after a hospital stay, a fall, or a period of illness. You will track their progress, celebrate their daily milestones, and ultimately cheer them on as they regain the ability to live safely and independently without the need for long-term care!

Dacorum District (x2 URGENT Vacancies!): You will be paid per shift at the following rates:

• Weekdays (Mon-Fri): £14.70 per hour
• Saturdays: £16.50 per hour
• Sundays: £16.50 per hour
• Mileage allowance: 30p per mile paid for your travel!

Shift Patterns: We offer shifts 7 days a week to fit your lifestyle:

• Day Shift: 7:00 AM - 2:00 PM
• Evening Shift: 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM

As a Reablement Care Assistant, your daily visits will focus on empowering your clients:

• Mobility & Physiotherapy Support - assisting with transfers, walking, and exercises prescribed by occupational therapists.
• Nutrition & Mealtimes - supporting them to safely prepare their own meals and drinks.
• Housekeeping Skills - helping them relearn how to manage light cleaning and laundry.
• Health Monitoring - closely observing progress and reporting improvements or setbacks.
• Social Inclusion - helping them regain the confidence to step back into their community.

Ideally, you’ll have at least 6 months of social care experience to join our merry band of care crusaders! Don’t worry we’ll help you level up your skills and knowledge as part of our close-knit (and delightfully quirky) team.

While experience is a bonus, we are really looking for people who:

• A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle is strictly required for travel between clients (some clients live in rural areas and need heroes who can reach them).
• Are committed to respectful, high-quality care that would make your gran proud.

Group Recognition Programmes: Be celebrated for your hard work with our internal 'Care Heroes' awards and long-service recognition!

• Fully funded NVQs/Diplomas in Health & Social Care - we will pay for you to upskill!
• Paid Shadowing Shifts with an experienced mentor before you go out on your own.
• Enhanced maternity, adoption & paternity pay.
• Pension scheme.
• 28 days annual leave (pro rata).
• Cycle to Work scheme.
• Enhanced weekend & bank holiday pay.
• Career progression opportunities.
• Employee benefits & wellbeing platform.
• Blue Light Card eligibility (staff discounts).
• Refer-a-Friend bonus (£300 per referral).
• Flexible hours - part-time and full-time available.
• Local work with the backing of the largest care company in the UK.
