Full job description

At Avondalecare, we provide residential support for adults living with mental health needs, learning disabilities and a range of care needs where personal care is required. We do not provide nursing care.

Our residents need more than practical support. They need someone who is genuinely kind, compassionate and willing to listen. Someone who can encourage them through difficult times, help them build confidence, develop coping strategies and achieve greater independence.

If people often tell you that you'd be great working in care, or you're looking for a meaningful career change, we'd love to hear from you.

The job description will give you a good idea, but its always helpful to discuss the role in more detail. If you are applying for a change in career path it's always a good idea to know what change your looking for. Your interview will be much more about the career path you are looking to embark upon, why you are making changes or looking to work in social care and what qualities and skill set can you bring to the team.
