Care Assistant - Nights

Avery Healthcare is looking for a Care Assistant to join the night team at its care home in Burley in Wharfedale, near Ilkley. This is a permanent role paying £13.30 per hour.

On nights you would help residents with their personal care in a way that protects their dignity and encourages them to stay as independent as possible. You would also keep an eye out for early signs of clinical risk, such as weight loss, pressure sores, falls or infections, and report concerns quickly so they can be acted on.

What you would be doing:

• Supporting residents with personal hygiene and comfort through the night
• Spotting and escalating changes in residents' health
• Treating residents and visitors with courtesy and respect
• Following safe working practices at all times

What Avery asks for:

• Clear spoken and written communication
• Initiative, reliability and a respectful attitude
• Willingness to follow instructions and to cover different tasks at short notice
• Proof that you are eligible to work in the UK

You do not need previous care experience, as Avery provides a full induction and training programme. The employer also pays for your DBS check and mentions opportunities to learn and develop within a supportive team.
