  • Level 2 Health & Social Care
  • Previous experience working within a care home
  • Caring, positive, and reliable individuals

Your role:
  • Deliver and lead high-quality, person-centred care
  • Support residents with personal care, dignity, and independence
  • Administer medication safely and accurately
  • Contribute to and review care plans
  • Lead activities, outings, and meaningful engagement
  • Support and guide team members, stepping up when needed

If you are looking for a role where you can build relationships, make a real difference, and be part of a supportive team, we would love to welcome you to Bosworth Care Home.
