Care Assistant (Night Shifts)

At Vision Care we are focussed on achieving two goals, providing outstanding care for our residents and a wonderful place to work for our team.

Both of our homes are rated good across the board by CQC and we aspire to achieve outstanding ratings in the future. To achieve this, we need to hire great people, nurture them, and ensure we offer them a wonderful place to work.

If that sounds like the environment you want to work in then read on. As a Night Care Assistant at Vision Care you will provide companionship to our residents, listening and talking about their interests, ensuring they are cared for compassionately and respectfully.

You will provide support with:

• Personal hygiene and care including daily washing and bathing
• Manual Handling, supporting residents with movement and mobilisation
• Helping at mealtimes to ensure everyone has a great dining experience
• Providing person centred care to the highest possible standard
• Promoting independence, ensuring all residents are treated with dignity and respect

We need Night Care Assistants who are compassionate, friendly, and keen to help and care for our residents.
