Are you a caring, compassionate and cheerful person with lots to give? Join us as our new Health Care Assistant at Bridgewood Mews care home in Tipton.

As a Health Care Assistant, you’ll support adults living with complex care needs to live their best lives. This role will give you a tremendous sense of achievement and pride – you’ll be making a real difference each and every day.

Bridgewood Mews is part of Exemplar Health Care, one of the country’s leading nursing care providers, supporting adults living with complex mental health needs, brain injuries, physical disabilities and neuro‑disabilities including Huntington’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

• supporting people with their personal care
• assisting people at meal times
• understanding individual health and wellbeing needs
• encouraging and supporting people to take part in social activities, both in and out of the home
• promoting choice, dignity, independence and respect
• completing and maintaining care records

We have higher‑than‑average staffing levels when compared to other care providers, giving you more time to spend with the people you support.

We value relevant experience and qualifications, but they aren’t essential for this role. Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our Exemplar Health Care values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork. You’re also:

• Caring, kind, understanding and calm
• Able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations
• Energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can‑do attitude
• A great listener and communicator

You’ll put people at the heart of everything you do. If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy and ongoing training programmes.

• Regular supervision, peer support and learning opportunities with career prospects
• Access to wages before payday
• Retail and lifestyle discounts
• Free DBS check
• 24/7 counselling and support
