The Role

As a Care Assistant working in Extra Care, you will support residents living independently in their own self‑contained apartments within the building. Your responsibilities may include:

• Providing personal care for female residents
• Supporting with medication
• Assisting with meals and hydration
• Encouraging independence, wellbeing and dignity
• Supporting residents with daily routines in a calm, structured environment
• Working as part of a supportive on‑site team

• Warm, compassionate and reliable individuals
• Female applicants only (Occupational Requirement)
• Experience welcome but not essential
• A genuine interest in older adults, including those with dementia
• Availability for day shifts or waking nights

Why Join All Care?

• Fixed‑location work — no travel between calls
• Supportive on‑site management
• Award‑winning training and development
• Clear progression pathways across All Care
• Friendly, community‑focused environment
