Care Home roles in St Helens
If you want care home work in St Helens, on days, nights or weekends, Protocol Healthcare Services can put you in front of the settings that are hiring. We recruit across the whole team, from Healthcare Assistants through to Registered Nurses.
Where the work is in St Helens
Whiston Hospital anchors a good deal of the health provision around Thatto Heath and Parr, and the settings we recruit for sit close to it. St Helens Borough Council commissions much of the care in the area, and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust runs the clinical side.
We fill posts in Thatto Heath, Parr, Sutton and Eccleston and out towards Rainhill, Whiston and Haydock. L35, WA10, WA9 and WA11 come up most often, and work extends through Merseyside.

- ✓ Personal care, washing, dressing and continence support
- ✓ Supporting residents at mealtimes and with nutrition

When you would work
You set your availability. Plenty of the people we place around Rainhill work three or four shifts and keep the rest of the week their own. Most people settle into a handful of regular services, often within a few miles of Sutton.
Agency and permanent are both on offer. Picking up shifts in two or three services around Parr is a low-risk way to find out where you want to be.
