Prestige Nursing + Care have a wonderful community team but we are looking for more experienced and friendly people to join us as there are so many people looking for quality care and in need of our assistance to remain at home for as long as possible.
Our homecare rounds are lovely with the minimum amount of time you would be with someone for is an hour but we also cover longer hours such as 6 hour shifts, 12 hour shifts and overnight care too which means.
NO PART HOURS OR 'POP IN' VISITS!
This really makes a difference as you are able to provide high quality care for people without all the rushing around!
We also cover our homecare visits '3 weeks in advance' so that you know what you are doing and you have the flexibility to work around your own personal commitments!
We are looking for staff who would be able and willing to work varied hours during the day and also to include evenings and weekends or at least 'every other' weekend to enable us to expand and grow.
Initially you would be asked to cover ad-hoc with a view of building your very own rounds - giving you regular, set hours!
Our goal at Prestige Nursing + Care is to make a positive difference to our clients' lives with every visit.
- Helping with daily life & companionship - shopping, preparing drinks and meals
- Personal care - assisting with washing, personal hygiene, dressing and grooming
- Working in partnership with local Social Services and Community Health Teams
- For some clients, we provide more specialised nursing or support care.
For community based care it is generally better for you to have a driving licence and access to your own vehicle.
We are proud to offer you:
- Competitive hourly rates
- Holiday pay - Earn as you work and claim it when you want
- Minimum hourly visits (no 'pop in' visits of 15 or 30 minute calls)
- Free uniform
- Flexible working
- Weekly pay
- Employee Assistance Programme 24/7 365 days a year (fully confidential support)
- 'Your Prestige' Benefits, discounts and rewards package
- Working with a local team at a local branch
- A variety of work matched to your skills and interests
- Ongoing training and development
What we're looking for from you:
- 6 months' paid experience in care within the UK
- A full driving licence is essential
- 2 professional references
- Passionate about providing care
- Friendly and approachable
- Have a 'hands on' and 'can do' attitude
