Summary
Choices Healthcare is an established health and social care organisation that supplies a variety of healthcare staff to the NHS, various local authorities, and private clients alike. In addition, we provide supported living accommodations and both internal and external healthcare training. We currently operate across Southeast England with scope for expansion.
Our Southend branch are currently looking for Care Assistants to join us in providing high-quality care within the community. Work shifts within the community tend to be mornings and lunches 7am-2pm and teas and beds from 4pm-10pm. Candidates must have a full driving licence with their own car, as this role will be primarily based out in the community. Mileage contribution is offered.

Care duties will therefore include assisting the client and observing and respecting the client’s dignity, privacy, and choice and promoting independence.
