Dementia Care Specialist

It’s Because You Care

Our Dementia Care Specialists use their unique skills to empower their team in providing first class and unrivalled dementia care, care that transforms lives.

Being a key component of our specialist dementia community, you will be leading a team of care assistants and working with our nursing team to provide the full scope of care and support to our dementia patients.

About The Role

We will support and develop your knowledge to understand the challenges Dementia brings to both residents and their families and be able to be the positive advocate for seeing the person and not the condition. From the moment a team member starts, you’ll ensure they receive an effective induction and provide ongoing guidance to ensure they meet the needs of our community.

You’ll be a mentor and someone they we can rely on in a difficult or emergency situation. We are kind and compassionate. Positive and resilient. Proactive and organised. Honest and accountable. Passionate and keen to develop. If this sounds like you, you’ll fit right in.

Career Structure

We recognise the importance of having a strong and proactive health care team at our homes and as such we recognise those efforts and contributions that you make to our residents.

Our career pathway, pay structure and bonus scheme, sets us apart from other organisations which makes us leading employers in our sector.
