Care Assistant, Days and Nights

Shifts across a 40-bed residential home. Full training and paid induction.

We are recruiting a Care Assistant, Days and Nights to join our team in Stirling. This is a permanent position with a proper handover, a named manager from day one, and the training you need to do the job well rather than just get through the first week.

About the role

• Support residents with personal care, mobility and mealtimes, at their pace and in the way they prefer.
• Keep accurate daily records and raise any change in someone’s condition with the nurse on shift.
• Follow care plans, and contribute to reviewing them when you notice something is no longer right.
• Help run activities and keep families informed and welcome.
• Work to CQC standards and our own safeguarding procedures, with refresher training provided.

What we are looking for

• Experience in a care setting, or a genuine willingness to train — we will fund the qualification.
• Reliability — the team notices when somebody turns up when they said they would.
• Clear communication with colleagues, and with customers where the role involves them.
• The judgement to work unsupervised, and the sense to ask when something is not clear.
• A careful approach to safety and to your own standard of work.

What we offer

• A permanent contract and a proper induction, not a fortnight of guessing.
• Paid training and support towards the qualification the role needs.
• 28 days holiday including bank holidays, rising with service.
• Company pension, and life cover after your first year.
• A rota published well in advance, so you can plan around it.
