Job description

As a Care Assistant in Truro, Redruth and the surrounds, you’ll be the person that brings smiles to the faces of the people in our care. This role is a chance to make a real difference to people’s lives - without your support, they may live a life constrained to specialist units or hospitals.
You'll be required to assist our service users with personal care tasks, posture care, ventilation, medication management, tracheostomy, suction, paediatric enabling, clinical needs, social activities and any other services needed. You’ll work as part of a small team of health and social care workers in the homes of our clients.

You’ll have a minimum of 3 months experience of caring professionally or for a loved one under your belt, a valid certificate in Moving and Handling, and the right to live and work in the UK. We also expect you to demonstrate our core values of positivity, trustworthiness, respectfulness, understanding, kindness, and calmness on every shift. Passion and determination to bring comfort and joy to our service users is a must. Access to your own vehicle would be beneficial, but is not a requirement.
