Droitwich Spa’s newest care home, Woodland View, located on Woodland Way, is recruiting for up to 65 team members ahead of its eagerly awaited launch later this year.
Positions available include care management, care assistants and kitchen and domestic staff. The new team will complete a thorough induction period before the home opens when they will provide first-rate residential and dementia care to up to 66 residents.
Woodland View, which has benefitted from a £12m investment, will be provider Ideal Carehomes 26th home and boasts a lavish cinema, an airy botanical room leading onto landscaped gardens, a traditional tea shop with a balcony, beauty parlour and opulent Sky Bar.
The caring staff team will be focused on creating a welcoming and fulfilling lifestyle for the people who live at Woodland View via their round-the-clock support, regular and varied activities, healthy and nutritious food and laundry and housekeeping service.
Head of Development and Engagement, Sarah Colling, said, “It is a great time to join the Ideal Carehomes family and even to start a career in social care if you are new to the sector. Over the course of the pandemic, the media has really shone a light on how amazing care workers are and it is wonderful to see them get the recognition they deserve.
We have unique training and development initiatives through our Ideal Academy, including industry-leading training, career progression opportunities via a range of learning resources such as E-learning and specialist workshops. We have recently launched our ‘future managers’ training programme – there are always opportunities to progress for the right people.’
Staff will have access to some of the most innovative and supportive care technology in the industry and will be provided with a recently updated uniform, offered in a range of colours determined by job role, as well as all the PPE they require. Ideal Carehomes will also facilitate the Covid-19 vaccine for any new members of staff who have not yet received the jab.
Each year, staff are invited to an awards gala, which sees thousands of nominations recognising those who have consistently gone the extra mile to make a difference to the lives of others.
Managing Director, Stacey Linn, said: ‘We are very excited to be opening our first luxury care home in Droitwich Spa and are keen to hear from people living in the local community who are seeking fulfilling careers within social care. Whilst our environments are second to none, it is our staff team who make our homes the best places to live, and who help our residents to retain their independence whilst supporting them to live an active lifestyle. We are looking for people who really want to make a difference and would like to be part of the Woodland View story right from the very start’.
Woodland View is due to open later this year and when it will welcome new residents for short and long term placements. To find out more about job opportunities at Woodland View, contact 0113 385 3551, email recruitment@idealcarehomes.co.uk or visit www.idealcarehomes.co.uk/careers.
