Care Home roles in Paisley
Protocol Healthcare Services recruits for nursing and residential homes in and around Paisley, covering everything from a single shift to a permanent contract. We place Registered Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, senior carers and support staff.
Working around Paisley
Work comes up near Ralston, Hawkhead and Thornly Park, much of it within reach of The Royal Alexandra Hospital. Between Renfrewshire and Renfrewshire Council, most of what we staff around Glenburn sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Ralston, Hawkhead and Thornly Park one week, Glenburn, Foxbar and Ferguslie Park the next. If you are based around PA1 or PA2, 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 Ferguslie Park is easier for you to reach than Gallowhill, 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 Gallowhill.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Ralston and Glenburn first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What you will need
- ✓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
How we work with you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your Renfrewshire shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Paisley itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Glasgow, East Kilbride and Greenock as well, and many people cover two of those alongside Paisley.
Tell us which parts of Renfrewshire you can reach and we will match you to what is open. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
