We are looking for inspiring, friendly and caring individuals to join our fabulous care teams in dedicated Residential locations.
Focusing on the care-needs, you’ll be assisting with the health-care, medication and personal care of the people we support, promoting their decisions and enabling them to live life to the fullest. This may involve preparing food, general cleaning duties or even spending the day out and about pursuing their interests including cinema trips, scenic walks or a day-trip to a theme park!
As a Support Worker with LDC Care Co, you will be trained to provide high-quality care via our fully paid, comprehensive two-week induction programme at the Hub in Dover, but your learning does not stop there. LDC Care Co is committed to lifelong learning and has its own LDC Academy and provided with opportunities to develop your career in social care.
We provide a supportive forward-thinking workplace culture, filled with new and exciting opportunities.
As such, we offer the following as standard:
Day-to-day support from a friendly team of colleagues and highly experienced Registered Managers.
Ideally, you may have experience working within care settings and supporting adults with similar needs.
You may already hold formal qualifications in the care sector and want to now progress your career.
Or you may be completely new and would like to start a career in the social care sector, all you need is the passion to ensure that their voice is heard for them.
The main thing we need to see from you is that you are a kind and caring individual, with strong ethical values which demonstrate an ability to support someone through the good times and the bad. Working in care can be tough, but the reward is huge.
