Care Assistant

We’re passionate about providing the best quality general nursing, residential and dementia care for older people.

As an established provider of care services, we are a highly professional organisation whose ethos revolves around quality, as well as having the wellbeing and care of residents as our highest priority.

Our focus is on giving residents as much independence as possible in a safe and friendly environment. We are a family owned business with family values at our core, with a growing team and sites UK wide.

You will join us as a Care Assistant and work as part of a team who are responsible for providing daily support to our residents to help maintain and improve, where possible, independence and mobility. You will continually monitor resident care, ensuring individualised care throughout and maintenance of accurate and up to date records. You will assist residents to carry out their activities of living e.g., dressing, eating and bathing.

The ability to work effectively as part of a team is essential. Previous experience of working within a care environment is essential. Full training and support will be provided on commencement of post.

We also offer a range of free Employee Benefits available including a 24 hour Employee Assistance Programme, so why not come and join our team and help us make our home a great place for our Residents.

Please note that all applicants who are offered employment will be subject to an enhanced criminal record check.

At Peterlee, we pride ourselves on creating a real ‘home from home’.

Within our premises are three homely and welcoming units, staffed by a friendly team of professional, registered nurses and dedicated carers who are on site 24 hours a day to provide care and support whenever needed. We’re proud to say our RMN nurse has previously been awarded the regional nurse award.

Our home offers a range of residential and nursing support options, whether you’re looking for a short stay, convalescent care, or long term residency, we even offer commitment free trial stays to make sure Peterlee is the right choice for you.
