Team Roles
JUMP TO
Our teams have joined us from a wide range of sectors, often not realising just how many of their existing skills are very transferable to working in care. Similarly, they have skills and expertise they’ve picked up in their lives outside of their previous jobs which have also been valuable in their current careers. No matter where your talents and passions lie, we have roles suited for everyone as each and every team member plays a vital role in providing the best possible care and support.
Joining RCH from Previous Roles
Care & Nursing
Whether it’s helping someone with personal care, supporting them to eat their lunch and take their medication, or enjoying an activity, as part of the care or nursing team, you will play a vital role in providing a wide-range of person-centred care and/or clinical support whilst spending quality time with residents. Senior and nurse roles in these teams require certain qualifications as you will be a leader who helps develop, teach and action best practices and techniques within the home.
Progression opportunities in these teams include becoming a senior or, for the more clinically minded, a CHAPs (Care Home Advanced Practitioner); as well as various management opportunities.
