Care Home roles in Bolton
If you want care home work in Bolton, on days, nights or weekends, Protocol Healthcare Services can put you in front of the settings that are hiring. We recruit across the whole team, from Healthcare Assistants through to Registered Nurses.
Bolton and the area we cover
Royal Bolton Hospital anchors a good deal of the health provision around Farnworth and Horwich, and the settings we recruit for sit close to it. Bolton Council commissions much of the care in the area, and Bolton NHS Foundation Trust runs the clinical side.
We fill posts in Farnworth, Horwich, Westhoughton and Astley Bridge and out towards Halliwell, Smithills and Breightmet. BL1, BL4, BL5 and BL6 come up most often, and work extends through Greater Manchester.
What you would be doing
- ✓ Supporting residents at mealtimes and with nutrition
- ✓ Mobility support and safe moving and handling
- ✓ Medication support appropriate to your role and training
- ✓ Activities, companionship and keeping families informed
- ✓ Clear record keeping and handover between shifts
- ✓ Personal care, washing, dressing and continence support
Shifts, and how they are booked
You set your availability. Plenty of the people we place around Halliwell work three or four shifts and keep the rest of the week their own. Most people settle into a handful of regular services, often within a few miles of Westhoughton.
Agency and permanent are both on offer. Picking up shifts in two or three services around Horwich is a low-risk way to find out where you want to be.
What we look for
- ✓Previous care home experience is helpful but not always required
- ✓An enhanced DBS check, which we can arrange
- ✓The right to work in the UK
- ✓Reliability and a genuinely person-centred approach
- ✓NMC registration if you are applying for a Registered Nurse post
What we do for you
One consultant looks after you, knows the difference between the services in Farnworth and Halliwell, and is reachable when a shift throws something up. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Bolton itself, which we would rather say plainly.
Work in Salford and Wigan often suits the same people, so tell us how far you are willing to go.
