Whether you are an experienced carer or looking to begin a meaningful new career in care, this is a fantastic opportunity to make a genuine difference. You will join a compassionate and supportive team that values kindness, patience, and a willingness to learn.

As a Day Care Assistant, you will support residents with their morning and daily routines, provide personal care with dignity and respect, encourage independence, and help them take part in meaningful activities that brighten their day. You will be someone our residents can count on for support, companionship, and encouragement.

What We’re Looking For:
You may already hold an SVQ Level 2 in Health & Social Care or be working towards it, or you might simply have a natural caring nature and want to learn. What matters most is your reliability, empathy, and desire to support others. If you are committed to delivering excellent care and being a part of a team that puts residents first, we will provide the training and support you need to thrive.

About Us:
Gowrie House is part of Belsize Healthcare, a family-owned, market-leading care provider with over 100 homes across the UK. We are proud to offer a nurturing environment where both residents and staff can flourish.
