We’re one of the largest not for profit care providers in the UK, specialising in providing high quality, person-centred care for older people in care homes and extra care housing nationwide. At OSJCT we care about our residents and about each other. That means you’ll enjoy great career development working for an expanding organisation. Because we’re a not for profit trust, we reinvest every penny we make in the people who live in our homes and the people who work here too, supporting better quality care and well-trained staff with competitive wages and development opportunities.
We provide outstanding care, working closely with leading experts on dementia and elderly care, and we’re modernising our portfolio of care homes to refurbishment and new, contemporary homes. As we expand nationwide, we need more people with the right mix of skills, passion and ambition to help us grow even more.
Patchett Lodge offers residential and day care surrounded by attractive grounds. The home looks after 30 residents.
We are looking for you to work as a care assistant making a real difference to our residents’ lives every day. Along with supporting daily routines and personal care (washing, bathing, supporting toilet use) we are looking for the right people to genuinely care for our residents and create a happy, fulfilled life for them. Some days may be challenging but you will laugh, have fun and make lasting memories. You’ll become part of our extended family too, bringing kindness, exceptional care and dignity to our care homes.
We are looking for both experienced carers and those that are new to care to build our teams with diverse people who can bring all sorts of life experience to the job. We provide induction training and support, with ongoing development opportunities for you to really build a career with us. You will be a great communicator and able to build relationships and positive working and living environments.
