Care Assistant

Join Ocean Healthcare’s Complex Care Team – Specialist Training Provided

We’re looking for dedicated carers to join our Complex Care team in and around Newton Abbot. You’ll be supporting both adults and children with varying levels of complex health and care needs.

You’ll be working night shifts typically from 20:00 to 08:00, delivering care and support to individuals in their own homes. While there can be flexibility around days, we are looking for a minimum availability of 16 hours (2 nights) per week.

If you’re a passionate care professional who wants to make a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Who do we support?

In this role you could be working with people of all ages from infants through to adults. Care can be provided on both 1:1 and 2:1 basis. We support both adults and children living with complex health needs which can cover a wide range of things including epilepsy, enteral feeding, learning disabilities, trachy/vented, medication management, neurological conditions, catheter/bowel/stoma and moving & handing.

We can give you a better idea of what you might be doing when we speak to you.

You’ll be fully prepared for your role through face-to-face training delivered by our nurse-led team and expert Trainers. We tailor your training to the specific needs of the service users you’ll be supporting. This will give you the confidence and skills needed to make a real difference.

Pay Rates & Shifts:

You’ll be delivering person-centred care during night shifts, usually running from 20:00 to 08:00. We’re currently looking for team members who are available for 1–2 nights per week, with shifts available 7 days a week.

Pay Rates range from £13.00-£18.55 per hour. Rates vary by shift type (day/night/weekend) and by complexity.
