Care Home roles in Newham
Care home work in Newham suits people who want to know the people they look after rather than meet someone new every day. Protocol Healthcare Services fills shifts and permanent posts in nursing and residential settings, for nurses and for care staff alike.
Newham and the area we cover
Newham University Hospital is the hospital local teams work alongside, and the homes and services around Stratford and West Ham draw staff from the same pool. Barts Health NHS Trust runs services locally, with Newham Council commissioning the social care alongside them.
Most placements are in Stratford, East Ham and West Ham, with regular work further out at Forest Gate, Plaistow and Manor Park. Postings run through E6, E7 and E12, including out at Canning Town.
What you would be doing
- ✓ 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
- ✓ Mobility support and safe moving and handling
Shifts, and how they are booked
Days, nights and weekends are all available, full time or part time. Someone covering Plaistow on earlies and Manor Park on nights is an ordinary week here. The aim is ongoing work in settings you already know, not a different address every week between Stratford and Beckton.
Some people stay on agency indefinitely; others use a few months around West Ham to find the right permanent home. Both are fine.
What we look for
- ✓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
- ✓An enhanced DBS check, which we can arrange
What we do for you
You get one consultant who knows your registration, your patch and which London services you have already worked in. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Newham itself, which we would rather say plainly.
Barking, Tower Hamlets and Ilford are close enough that plenty of our people work across them and Newham both.
Let us know your hours and how far you will travel from Stratford, and we will do the rest. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
