Care Assistant
About The Role
At HC-One, kindness is at the heart of everything we do across our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Our residents are people with their own stories to tell, and by joining us, you’ll help them live with dignity and purpose, while giving something back yourself.
We’re looking for an enthusiastic and committed Care Assistant to join our team. Working under the guidance of a Registered Nurse, you’ll support the physical, emotional, and social wellbeing of our residents—this includes:
- Personal care: washing, dressing, hygiene, and meal preparation
- Assisting residents with daily activities within the home
You’ll deliver care from the heart, ensuring residents retain their individuality. Your role could involve:
- Assisting limited-mobility residents with mobility support
- Offering comfort and how to a distressed resident
- Providing compassionate end-of-life care
Safeguarding is crucial in adult social care. You must be able to:
- Recognise signs of potential abuse, harm, or neglect
- Understand how to report concerns appropriately
- Know when to escalate if action is insufficient
All colleagues are expected to complete safeguarding training relevant to their role, as well as related supplementary training.
