We have an exciting opportunity for you to become part of our dynamic, supportive service. We are looking for dedicated, compassionate Care Assistants to join our team, in permanent posts. You may have opportunities to work across our Bolton sites; this can be discussed at interview.
What do we do?
We provide 24-hour residential care for people who require continuation of care and rehabilitation, or assessment of future care needs.

We recognise the skills and experience individuals can bring and promote joint working, with both NHS and Local Authority staff working on-site.
What does the role involve?
Please read the job description and person specification for these duties.
What will your working week look like?
Please see attached rota examples.
Please note this is a set rolling rota, for permanent posts. There will be opportunities to pick up additional shifts.
About You
You must be experienced in providing care, or be willing to learn, and be able to demonstrate kindness and compassion when working with service users.
You should be able to use a computer as you will be required to use computer-based information systems.
Unfortunately, at this time Bolton Council is not able to offer sponsorship for these positions, therefore you must have Right to Work in the UK.
