Cera are recruiting Care Assistants for our Extra Care service in Heysham Gardens, Carlisle.
Are you kind? A people person? Love making a difference in people's lives? Then we can offer you the perfect role as a Carer, where you will genuinely make a difference, every day! No experience required.
We're recruiting for part-time (mornings and evenings) and bank shift night worker positions. It's secure work that comes with good pay, great training and no previous experience is required.
Extra Care units offer residents their own self-contained living space within a larger building, with access to care staff who are based within the unit and who provide care to each resident. As a care assistant at our Extra Care Unit, you will be supporting residents, who all have varying needs to live as independently as possible, with personalised care and support plans in place.
Every client's needs are different. You may assist with a bit of housework or help with getting up in the morning. A tasty hot meal and a listening ear. A hand with medication or getting washed and dressed. But more than this, our carers become friends, providing human company, encouragement and maybe a laugh or two, often when life has become a bit tough. Caring isn't always easy, but a lot of people and their families will be grateful that you were there for them.
Our benefits include:
- Pay is paid in block shifts with no travel required during your shift.
- Part-time (mornings and evenings) and bank night worker roles available.
