Care Home roles in High Wycombe
Protocol Healthcare Services recruits for nursing and residential homes in and around High Wycombe, covering everything from a single shift to a permanent contract. We place Registered Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, senior carers and support staff.
Where the work is in High Wycombe
Work comes up near Downley, Hazlemere and Totteridge, much of it within reach of Wycombe Hospital. Between Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust and Buckinghamshire Council, most of what we staff around Micklefield sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Downley, Hazlemere and Totteridge one week, Micklefield, Cressex and Booker the next. If you are based around HP11 or HP12, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
The job day to day
- ✓ 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
When you would work
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If Booker is easier for you to reach than Sands, 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 Sands.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Downley and Micklefield first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
Before you apply
- ✓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
Working with Protocol
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your Buckinghamshire shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in High Wycombe itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Slough, Uxbridge and Aylesbury as well, and many people cover two of those alongside High Wycombe.
