Every day as a HICSS Care Assistant is different, but your impact is always the same – helping people recover, regain independence, and remain safely at home.

You will:
  • Support individuals following hospital discharge or during periods of recovery
  • Deliver person-centred care in line with care plans and clinical guidance
  • Assist with personal care while promoting dignity and independence
  • Monitor wellbeing and report changes to the wider multidisciplinary team
  • Support mobility, medication, nutrition, and daily living activities
  • Work closely with healthcare professionals as part of an integrated local team

  • Hold (or are willing to work towards) a relevant qualification such as a Care Certificate or NVQ/QCF Level 2 in Health & Social Care
  • Are confident following care plans and working alongside healthcare professionals
  • Are observant and able to recognise and report changes in condition
  • Are reliable, committed, and able to work independently in the community
  • Have a full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle

  • Free DBS check – we cover the full cost of the DBS application
  • Local travel only - paid mileage for every journey, if you drive
  • Full training & paid induction - no experience needed
  • Flexibility - work patterns that fit your lifestyle
