Our Home First & Reablement service supports people returning home after a stay in the hospital. This helps them continue their recovery in their own surroundings – regaining their ability to live as independently as possible.
This is an exciting time to join our service – we are expanding to continue to provide quality care and support, and we are looking for enthusiastic and motivated individuals who want to work with people in their communities.

If you are new to care and hold no experience in healthcare, then we offer a fantastic development opportunity with a structured development plan (including achieving the Care Certificate). You will progress from a pay band 2 to pay band 3 on achievement of the Care Certification.
This role is offered on a permanent basis.

You don’t need any previous caring experience – all we ask is that you: Enjoy working with people; Understand what motivates people; Are comfortable being involved in practical, sometimes personal and intimate care provision for people; Have a desire to learn and develop skills; Are able to work alone and in a team setting.
The support we provide includes washing, dressing, cooking meals, accessing community services, arranging delivery services, improving mobility and balance so patients can safely use steps or stairs, walk in and outdoors, or use transport.
As this is a community-based role, a full Driving Licence valid for the UK and access to a vehicle insured for business use is essential.
The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
We have in excess of 5000 staff working over 50 sites, providing a diverse range of services. We strive to support an organisational culture that is welcoming, builds and celebrates inclusivity and diversity, and provides a sense of belonging and trust.
