Care Home roles in Hamilton
Protocol Healthcare Services recruits for nursing and residential homes in and around Hamilton, covering everything from a single shift to a permanent contract. We place Registered Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, senior carers and support staff.
Hamilton and the area we cover
Work comes up near Burnbank, Hillhouse and Whitehill, much of it within reach of University Hospital. Between South Lanarkshire and South Lanarkshire Council, most of what we staff around Earnock sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Burnbank, Hillhouse and Whitehill one week, Earnock, Fairhill and Eddlewood the next. If you are based around ML3 or ML3, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
What you would be doing
- ✓ Clear record keeping and handover between shifts
- ✓ Personal care, washing, dressing and continence support
- ✓ 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
Shifts, and how they are booked
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If Eddlewood is easier for you to reach than Low Waters, 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 Low Waters.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Burnbank and Earnock first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What we look for
- ✓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
- ✓Previous care home experience is helpful but not always required
What we do for you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your South Lanarkshire shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Hamilton itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Motherwell, East Kilbride and Glasgow as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Hamilton.
