When you join Ideal Carehomes, you become part of an award-winning luxury care home group with over 10 years' experience in providing person-centred residential and dementia care to residents in beautiful, state-of-the-art homes.

The people we employ are the best at what they do and provide the highest standards of care to our residents.

We are recruiting for a Senior Care Assistant Nights at Hambleton Grange in Thirsk, York. Be part of our story and become part of our caring team.

The role also includes the safe administration of medication to residents as prescribed, accurately maintaining records and ensuring residents health and wellbeing.

Any role within a care home is hard work, especially being a part of the senior management team. It is also hugely rewarding to know that you have really made a difference to the residents lives - every single day. We ask that you dedicate yourself to your home and residents and in return we will support you in your role and career every step of the way.
