Home Care and Healthcare Staffing in Newark

Newark • Nottinghamshire

Trusted care and staffing across Newark

Protocol Healthcare Services works with families and care providers across Newark-on-Trent and the wider Newark and Sherwood area. For families we arrange home care that helps a loved one stay safe and independent at home, from a short daily visit through to full live-in support. For care providers we supply qualified nurses, carers and support workers, drawing on more than ten years of experience matching the right people to the right settings.

Our offices are based in the South of England, in Edgware and Bournemouth, so we do not run a branch in Newark itself. As an REC-affiliated healthcare staffing agency, however, our reach is genuinely national. We coordinate care and place vetted professionals in Newark the same way we do everywhere we work, with enhanced DBS and right to work checks, references and training completed before anyone starts, and a consultant on hand around the clock.

Local knowledge across Newark

Newark-on-Trent is a historic market town on the banks of the River Trent, home to the striking ruins of Newark Castle, where King John died in 1216 and whose gatehouse is recognised as one of the most complete of its kind in England. The town and its surrounding communities sit largely within the NG24 postcode, reaching out to neighbouring NG22 and NG23 areas. We support people right across these neighbourhoods, from the town centre and Beacon Hill to Balderton, New Balderton, Fernwood, Coddington, Farndon and Winthorpe, tailoring care to the person and the place rather than offering a one size fits all service.

We regularly support people returning home after a stay at Newark Hospital on Boundary Road, which is run by Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, as well as those discharged from larger hospitals elsewhere in Nottinghamshire. The first weeks back at home matter, so we help with medication routines, mobility and rehabilitation support and stay in close contact with families and community teams.

Adult social care across the area is overseen by Nottinghamshire County Council, while the district is served by Newark and Sherwood District Council. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask the county council for a free care needs assessment, followed by a financial assessment. Many families we work with self-fund their care, and we are always happy to explain how the different routes work. You can read more on our paying for care guide.

Staffing for care providers in Newark

We supply NMC-registered nurses and midwives, support workers, mental health professionals and learning disability specialists, from a single shift to a fully managed rota and permanent placements. Every professional is vetted to the same high standard, so you get reliable cover without the compliance headache, wherever you are in the country.
