Sidmouth
Our bank Care Assistants are paid £12.75 per hour, with enhanced rates on selected Bank Holidays.
Day and night shifts available, weekends available also if you choose to work them.
Bank work gives you the breathing room to balance your commitments, whether that’s family time, studies, hobbies or simply taking time for yourself.
Bank work tends to suit people who want flexibility without committing to a fixed rota, whether you’re returning to care, looking for extra shifts, or wanting work that fits around your availability.
Sundial Care Home is set in the quiet village of Tipton St John close to Sidmouth and can offer 12-hour shifts on a bank basis, meaning you can choose the days that suit you. You decide when you’re available, so your week can work around your plans. This could be a regular day each week, or shifts offered on an as-and-when basis – you choose!
You’ll be working in a household-style environment, where daily routines are shaped around people rather than fixed schedules.

The Role
As part of your role, you’ll be helping people with personal care and daily routines. This can include help with washing, dressing and using the bathroom, as well as supporting at mealtimes and throughout the day. Day and night shifts can feel different because the support needed will vary across the day, but in both you’ll be working closely with a team you get to know well.
There is also some computer-based work involved, such as updating electronic care plans, so attention to detail is important. Confidence with technology can be taught, but a caring nature, patience and willingness to learn are what matter most.
The residential home is made up of two households, with some people living with a dementia, this means the support you provide may vary depending on the house you are working in.
