The Role

MTVH can provide full training to you if you have the desire and compassion to support older people to meet their personal needs with dignity and to live a full and included life.

You will be joining our care and support team supporting customers who live in our Extra Care services in Rushcliffe. Although you will have a named base, there is an understanding that some shift hours may be worked in other services, giving variety.

All the customers are older people, and you will support them to maintain a dignified standard of living and to live as independently as possible. Supporting our customers with their personal care needs is required but your focus is on encouraging inclusion and to be a significant support to our customers.

This training will ensure you provide personalised care and support services to our customers with dignity. This role does require you to work flexibly to ensure individual needs are met while maximising independence, choice, privacy, and well-being, in collaboration with the senior care and support workers/team leaders.

To meet our commitment to providing safe, high-quality services to our customers we will complete an enhanced background check with the Disclosure and Barring service, which will include a check of the Adult Barred list, once an offer of employment is made.
