Job summary
In your role as a Unit Manager at HC-One youll value one thing above all. Kindness. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. And, by joining us, youll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people. Being a Unit Manager will mean taking responsibility for a specific part of the home and delivering the very best level of care. Not to mention running the entire place when the Home Manager and Deputy Home Manager are absent. So, whether youre reporting that the new lady who just came in appears to have some mobility issues, asking a gentleman to provide a sample for monitoring or administering a medicine to someone who, youll always have resident dignity and well being in mind above all.
Main duties of the job
You will have proven leadership skills in a care home for vulnerable adults. Beyond that, its all about your brilliant, positive energy and natural ability to get along with people.
