Role details

This is an exciting opportunity to join our professional and friendly Home Care Team as a Senior Care Assistant.

Senior Care Assistants are supervised and managed by the Home Care Manager. You will assess, plan and review the care for our clients on an individual basis -one size does not fit all.

You need to be flexible in order to support 7am – 11pm service delivery and you will supervise and oversee the personal and professional development of our Care Assistants. Part of the role will be contributing to planning rotas and making changes  for cover if required. Senior Care Assistants will help to provide care and support for clients with all aspects of their day-to-day living, so that they can enjoy the best possible quality of life. This may be the delivery of personal care, home help and companion activities in the home.

Key responsibilities are to safely plan and provide compassionate care that is centred on the individual needs and wishes of each client. We respect client’s choices and promote their dignity at all times.   You may be the only person the clients sees over a period of time, therefore it is essential to be aware of any changes or causes for concern.

You will work in accordance with FNHC’s standards to consistently demonstrate the behaviours and values required to fulfil the promises we have made to the people of Jersey.

Home Care is a professional and friendly team. Our values of care and kindness are demonstrated in everything we do.
