REABLEMENT CARE WORKER in Tilbury, Borough of Thurrock

Reablement Care Workers – Community Based

2 Vacancies Available | 21 or 35 Hours per Week | Interviews Being Arranged

Are you a compassionate, reliable and motivated individual who enjoys making a real difference in people's lives?

We are currently recruiting for 2 Reablement Care Workers (Community Carers) to support individuals in their own homes, helping them regain their confidence, independence and everyday living skills following illness, injury or a hospital stay.

This is an excellent opportunity for experienced care workers looking for a rewarding new role within the community.

Unlike traditional domiciliary care, reablement focuses on helping people do things for themselves rather than doing everything for them. You'll play a vital role in supporting individuals to rebuild their abilities, achieve personal goals and live as independently as possible.

The Positions

We have two opportunities available:

• Position 1: 21 hours per week

• Position 2: 35 hours per week

• Shift Pattern: 4-week rolling rota

• Working Hours: Earlies, lates and potentially long days (6:00am–7:00pm)

• Weekend Working: Every other weekend

• Location: Community-based, travelling between service users across the borough

Final rotas and shift arrangements are subject to confirmation.

• Work closely with occupational therapists, nurses, social workers and other healthcare professionals.
