Healthcare Assistant

Role Overview & Responsibilities

Care Dorset doesn’t believe that a career in care is for everyone – but it could be for you. Come and join our team of over 800 colleagues who give care and support for the people who need it most across Dorset. And if this role’s not for you, we’ll have one that is.

What we are looking for:

We are looking for committed and passionate care staff to provide care and support to our lovely residents at Castleman House, a purpose-built residential home, located in the Georgian Market town of Blandford Forum.

You will join a longstanding team of committed and passionate colleagues working in a person-centred way to meet the needs of our residents.

Some previous experience in a care capacity would be welcome but full training and support will be provided.

Full and part-time positions/days/nights available up to 37 hours working shift patterns to cover weekends on an alternative basis. Please state your preference when applying.

Our benefits package includes but is not restricted to:

• Flexible working patterns
• Recommend a Friend bonus payments
• Generous annual leave entitlement
• Enhancements for working unsocial hours
• Career development opportunities
• Employee assistance programme

As you will be working with vulnerable adults and/or have access to significant information about them if you are successful, you will be required to undergo a DBS check. This role is UK based and we will need to establish your Right to Work as part of the appointment process.
