Want to make a difference? Join Salutem in supporting people to live the life they love!
Individuals we support become part of a Salutem family, where they can be themselves, thrive, and love the life they live. We are immensely proud of the part we play in creating meaningful days and fulfilled lives for everyone at Salutem, and that includes those who work for us. The opportunities and prospects really are limitless, and that’s why you should consider becoming part of our family.
Lewis Martin Court is a residential care home with nursing for disabled adults who have a range of complex needs and learning difficulties. We also provide short breaks and transition support for young disabled people. There is a self-contained bungalow which is vibrant, stimulating and inspiring place to live, to enable learning and socialising.
At Salutem, we understand that providing our colleagues with a work life balance; to invest their freedom in what they love, benefits the care they give to the people using our services. That’s why we’re looking for a flexible person on-the-go, to take a rewarding opportunity to learn new skills. Shifts run on a rolling rota over a 7 day week.
