As a Senior Carer, you'll combine hands-on care with supervisory duties. It's all about ensuring that every resident receives the very best care while mentoring and supporting your colleagues to be their best. Here's a flavour of what you'll be doing:
- Coaching and mentoring your team so they're confident and skilled in every part of their role.
- Supporting residents with a range of personal care needs, while making sure dignity, respect and privacy are always maintained.
- Ensuring every resident has a comprehensive and up-to-date care plan that reflects their needs, and making sure your team follows it to the letter.
- Dispensing medication with accuracy and care, keeping detailed records as you go.
This role is a mix of hands-on care and supervisory responsibilities, so you'll need to feel comfortable juggling tasks while always keeping our residents' happiness and wellbeing at the heart of everything you do.
