Senior Care Assistant

About the Role

As a Senior Care Assistant at HC One, kindness will be at the core of everything you do. It touches every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every team member understands that our residents are people with their own stories, lives, and dignity—just like anyone else. You’ll have the opportunity to meaningful impact by delivering care that fosters security, dignity, and independence.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan and implement personalised care plans tailored to each resident’s individual needs.
  • Build strong relationships with residents and their families to ensure their preferences are respected.
  • Lead a team of Care Assistants, maintaining the highest standards of care and mentoring colleagues.
  • Provide physical and mental stimulation through social, recreational, and life-ТО activities.
  • Assisting the Registered Nurse and Care Manager in medication administration, health checks, and end-of-life care.
  • Ensure accurate and thorough record-keeping of care delivered.
  • Support and adhere to safeguarding policies, recognizing signs of abuse, neglect, or harm, and escalating concerns as required.
  • Maintain proactive communication with residents, families, and colleagues with compassion and dignity.

Ideal Candidate Skills & Qualifications

  • A Level 2 Diploma (or equivalent) in Adult Social Care (progression toward Level 3 qualification is encouraged).
  • Experience in person-centred care planning, particularly with older adults and dementia.
  • Exceptional soft skills—natural warmth, empathy, patience, and the ability to relate genuinely to people.
  • Strong record-keeping and organisational abilities.
  • Willingness to learn and develop through training opportunities.
  • Commitment to inclusivity, safeguarding, and continuous improvement.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
