Job Description

This job description outlines the duties and responsibilities of a care assistant in a care home or similar setting. The care assistant will provide essential support to service users with various personal care needs, including dressing, undressing, washing, using the toilet and bath, and meal assistance, either at the table or in bed. In addition to providing basic care needs, the care assistant will also provide engaging activities to stimulate and entertain service users.

The role also involves assisting with daily activities such as letter writing, paying bills, and collecting benefits. Light cleaning and domestic duties such as meal preparation may also be required. The care assistant will work a minimum of 39 hours per week and will receive a minimum salary of £10.75 per hour, equating to a minimum annual salary of £21,801.00 per year.

The job description notes that there is a nation-wide staff shortage, which has made it challenging to find suitable candidates for the position. As a result, the employer has decided to appoint migrant candidates as they have been having difficulty finding candidates from the UK who meet the necessary requirements for the role. The position requires a Defined Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) to enable the successful candidate to work in the UK.
