We have an opportunity available for a Night Shift Care Assistant to join our well established passionate care team at Risby Park Nursing Home, Bury St Edmunds. We have part time and/or full time available.
If you want to make a difference to peoples lives, enjoy being with people and want to work in an established friendly and supportive team, we would love to hear from you. No experience is necessary as full training is given, we look more for the human values of kindness, empathy and compassion.
Our Care Team plays a vital role in supporting our residents to live comfortably, safely and with dignity in our home. You will be helping residents with their daily routines, supporting their independence, and making sure they feel valued and respected.
The smallest things make the hugest difference — a smile, a hug, or a helping hand — can make the biggest difference.
