Care Home roles in Burnley
Protocol Healthcare Services recruits for nursing and residential homes in and around Burnley, covering everything from a single shift to a permanent contract. We place Registered Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, senior carers and support staff.
Working around Burnley
Work comes up near Burnley Wood, Padiham and Worsthorne, much of it within reach of Burnley General Teaching Hospital. Between East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust and Lancashire County Council, most of what we staff around Cliviger sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Burnley Wood, Padiham and Worsthorne one week, Cliviger, Briercliffe and Rosegrove the next. If you are based around BB10 or BB11, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
A typical shift
- ✓ 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
- ✓ Supporting residents at mealtimes and with nutrition
Shifts and contracts
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If Rosegrove is easier for you to reach than Ightenhill, say so and the rota follows it. Once you are established we keep the work regular rather than sporadic, usually in the same two or three services around Ightenhill.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Burnley Wood and Cliviger first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What you will need
- ✓NMC registration if you are applying for a Registered Nurse post
- ✓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
How we work with you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your Lancashire shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Burnley itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Blackburn, Rochdale and Keighley as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Burnley.
