You will assist our residents, whilst respecting their dignity and promoting independence, with a wide range of daily activities from bathing, dressing, support with eating and taking medication through to singing, gardening, day trips, and celebrating special events. Your role is to ensure that all our residents can continue to live the lives they love and are encouraged to maintain the activities they have always enjoyed.
