Full-time

Position : Health Care Assistant

Care home : Lakeview

Location : Leigh, Wigan

Contract type : Days/Nights (12 hour shifts )

Rate :£12.71 increasing to £12.81 on completion of Exemplar Care Certificate

Are you a caring, compassionate and cheerful person with lots to give? Join us as our new Health Care Assistant at Lakeview care home in Wigan.

As a Health Care Assistant, you'll support adults living with complex care needs to live their best lives.

This role will give you a tremendous sense of achievement and pride - you'll be making a real difference each and every day.

About Exemplar Health Care

Lakeview is part of Exemplar Health Care, a leading provider of nursing care for adults living with complex and high acuity needs.

We support adults living with complex mental health needs, dementia, neuro-disabilities including Huntington's disease, and physical disabilities.

As well as stable and secure employment opportunities, we offer great benefits and perks, and plenty of opportunities to learn, develop and progress.

About the role

Our Health Care Assistants support people to live their best lives, whatever that looks like to them.

No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • supporting people with their personal care
  • assisting people at meal times
  • understanding individual health and wellbeing needs
  • encouraging and supporting people to take part in social activities, both in and out of the home
  • promoting choice, dignity, independence and respect
  • completing and maintaining care records.

About you

We value relevant experience and qualifications, but they aren't essential for this role.

Above all, you're someone who identifies with our Exemplar Health Care values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork.

You're also…

  • caring, kind, understanding and calm
  • able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations
  • energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can-do attitude
  • a great listener and communicator.

You'll put people at the heart of everything you do.

If you haven't worked in the care sector before, we'll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy and ongoing training programmes.

What we offer

We offer great rewards and perks including:

  • regular supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
  • access to wages before payday
  • retail and lifestyle discounts
  • free DBS check
  • 24/7 counselling and support
  • Blue Light Card eligibility.
