Care Assistants in Oxford

At Chawley Grove, our Senior Care Assistants are called Homemaker Leads. More than support workers, care assistants or healthcare assistants – they are carers and companions all in one. They have the time to get to know our residents and are trusted to give each person the care they need, in the way they like. At Hamberley, we believe that our residents deserve something 'Extra Special, Every Day'. And at the heart of this model are our Homemakers Leads – Senior care assistants with a difference. A Homemaker is a unique caring role for a unique person, where you can care with a difference.

Key Responsibilities and Highlights

• A varied role where no two days are the same.
• We care for individual people in the way a family member might care for someone in their home.
• We don't do timetabled task‑based care – we care for each individual in the way that works best for them.
• Whether that's administering medication, helping make someone's bed, arranging a family meal with their loved ones or taking them to the beauty salon, you'll always be doing something different.
• Our Homemakers focus on the tiny details that make our residents unique, and tailor care to each and every individual.
• A chance to make a real difference to our residents' lives.
• As a Homemaker you have fewer people to care for, but you spend more time with them.
• It's a more satisfying and fulfilling role that is better for our residents.
• Supportive team environment.
• Being kind and supportive to each other is key to our ability to show kindness and companionship to our residents.

Are you interested? Could you be part of our team? You may have experience as a senior healthcare assistant, healthcare assistant, care assistant, carer, home care assistant or domiciliary care assistant and are looking for a different approach, a nicer work environment and a more satisfying role.
