Care Home roles in Worthing
Care home work in Worthing 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.
Worthing and the area we cover
Worthing Hospital is the hospital local teams work alongside, and the homes and services around Broadwater and Durrington draw staff from the same pool. University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust runs services locally, with West Sussex County Council commissioning the social care alongside them.
Most placements are in Broadwater, Goring-by-Sea and Durrington, with regular work further out at West Tarring, Findon Valley and High Salvington. Postings run through BN11, including out at East Worthing.
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 Findon Valley on earlies and High Salvington on nights is an ordinary week here. The aim is ongoing work in settings you already know, not a different address every week between Broadwater and Offington.
Some people stay on agency indefinitely; others use a few months around Durrington to find the right permanent home. Both are fine.
What we look for
- ✓Previous care home experience is helpful but not always required
- ✓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
What we do for you
You get one consultant who knows your registration, your patch and which West Sussex services you have already worked in. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Worthing itself, which we would rather say plainly.
Brighton and Hove, Chichester and Crawley are close enough that plenty of our people work across them and Worthing both.
Let us know your hours and how far you will travel from Broadwater, and we will do the rest. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
