Deputy Home Manager Deputy Home Manager

Overview

As a Deputy Home Manager, you\’ll be making sure the level of clinical care we offer goes beyond just professional standards and statutory, regulatory, and legal requirements. This means providing specialist nursing support and advice, taking responsibility for resident care in the Home Manager\’s absence, and supervising/coaching colleagues to provide a service that\’s unparalleled in its empathy for resident issues. This role is for 22 hours per week.

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 HC-One 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.

HC-One is looking for a Deputy Home Manager with a valid NMC Pin, knowledge of National Standards, and the NMC code of practice. Not to mention a background in person-centred care planning within a care home. Beyond that, it\’s all about your brilliant, positive energy and natural ability to get along with people. You\’ll be a great mentor who can manage time effectively and keep meaningful records. And, whenever you communicate with a resident or co-worker, you\’ll be truly considerate and kind.

You’ll value kindness above all, because it drives every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One, you\’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

Safeguarding is everyone\’s responsibility and therefore it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.

About HC-One: At HC-One, kindness is more than a word. It is a belief that caring for people means caring about what matters most to them so we can support them to lead their best possible life. We call these five qualities the HC-One Way: Kindness, Curiosity, Compassion, Courage, and Inclusivity. Our diverse and inclusive workforce allows us to learn from each other and better represent the communities we serve. We are committed to developing people through robust career pathways, CPD and postgraduate programmes, with opportunities to progress into regional and national roles.
