What is the role of a Senior Care Assistant?

A Senior Care Worker routinely oversees, supports and monitors care workers, care assistants and home carers. They also attend to the personal needs and comforts of Clients or service users within residential care settings, day care centres or in the Clients own home.

Senior Care Assistants can have a higher level of responsibility with compliance too. This means they will often carry out competency support visits on Care Assistants to make sure they are happy and comfortable in their role. This may also include checking paperwork to make sure it is completed correctly and where needed, they may offer a little bit of coaching to help improve a Care Giver’s skills.

Senior’s are required to report any changes or additional support needs for Carers and Clients to the management team who will then help to action those changes.
