Night Care Worker

As a Night Shift Care Worker with Cross Reach, you'll help ensure the people we support feel safe, comfortable and well cared for throughout the night. You'll provide personal and practical assistance, respond to individual needs and help maintain a calm, respectful environment where people can rest with confidence.

You'll also play an important part in maintaining continuity of care, making sure colleagues have the information they need when the next shift begins.

• Provide personal care and practical assistance during the night, respecting individual routines and preferences.
• Respond promptly and sensitively when someone needs support or reassurance.
• Support people with mobility, comfort and other overnight care needs.
• Carry out appropriate checks in line with individual care plans.
• Recognise and report changes in health, behaviour or wellbeing.
• Maintain accurate records and share important information during shift handovers.

You'll be calm, dependable and attentive, with the ability to respond thoughtfully to different situations. You'll understand the importance of respecting people's privacy, maintaining their dignity and providing support without unnecessarily disturbing their rest.

Previous care experience is welcome, but it's not essential. We're looking for people with good communication skills, sound judgement and a willingness to learn. If you don't already hold an SVQ Level 3 in Health and Social Care, you'll be supported to work towards achieving it with Cross Reach.

You'll need to be comfortable providing personal care, responding to people's needs and working independently when required during overnight shifts.

You'll also need to meet the relevant PVG and SSSC registration requirements.

At Cross Reach, we recognise that quality care matters just as much during the night as it does during the day. You'll contribute to an organisation committed to compassion, respect and providing consistent, person-centred support.
