The Role
As a Senior Care Assistant, you will provide high quality, individualised care and support to residents during a shift, promoting each person’s privacy, dignity and independence. You will be responsible for supervising and leading the shift and team members, and working together as a team to create a happy and caring atmosphere. Whether you are carrying out a direct observation on a care assistant who is assisting someone to eat their lunch, checking that a resident’s turning chart has been completed, checking that a resident’s activities log has been completed, giving a detailed handover to the team on the next shift, or assisting a resident to get dressed for the day or bed, you will do so with care at the heart of everything you do.
Do you want to make a difference to someone's life and feel a sense of purpose in an extremely rewarding role? Do you have good team leading, delegation and organisational skills? Have you completed, or are you currently undertaking your L3 NVQ/Diploma in Health and Social Care? Are you caring, warm and understanding? Are you spontaneous, patient, flexible and have a good sense of humour? Do you strongly believe in the values of Creating Communities, Caring for Each Other and Celebrating Individuality? If your answer is yes to all these questions, why not join our Hartford Care family?
