As a Health Care Assistant, you’ll support adults living with complex care needs to live their best lives. This role will give you a tremendous sense of achievement and pride – you’ll be making a real difference each and every day.
About the role:
- Supporting people to live their best lives, whatever that looks like to them.

We value relevant experience and qualifications, but they aren’t essential for this role. Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our Exemplar Health Care values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork. You’re also:
- Caring, kind, understanding and calm
- Able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations
- Energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can-do attitude
- A great listener and communicator
You’ll put people at the heart of everything you do. If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy and ongoing training programmes.

Exemplar Health Care began as a healthcare consultancy and training firm. But we soon saw a gap in the sector: a lack of care homes for younger adults living with complex needs. That insight shaped the mission we still live by today - to transform complex care and provide fulfilling opportunities for the people who need it most.
Whoever you are, and whatever experience you bring, there are lots of ways you can help us make every day better for the people we support. The people we support have unique needs and stories, but one thing stays the same across all our homes - we empower individuals to achieve personal goals in a safe and supportive environment.
Every new colleague attends an induction to learn about our company and complete mandatory and role-specific training, equipping you with the skills and knowledge to deliver exceptional care. Whether your goals are in care, nursing, management, quality or support, we provide the confidence, skills and knowledge to help you excel in your role and advance your career, if you wish.
Happy, healthy colleagues mean better care for those we support. We offer a range of initiatives to ensure our colleagues thrive in safe and supportive environments.
