About The Company

The Greenfields Family are Recruiting!

Greenfields Close is a spacious 28-bed residential care home in Newark, Nottingham, providing support for adults with learning disabilities, autism, mental health issues, physical disabilities, and complex care needs. We provide a high level of support to enable all the people we support to meet their personal goals and future aspirations!

Some of the individuals we support are very sociable and love spending time with friends at home and out in the community. Whether that's venturing out to the cinema or for a catch up over coffee!

We understand what's important and always try our best to help the individuals live their best lives! No two days are the same, one day we're partaking in a family event or party and the next we're out window shopping and sightseeing! There is huge variety in the role and lots to learn.

At Salutem Care and Education, we recognise the value and wisdom that come from all stages of life. Join our team to be a part of a community that truly appreciates the richness of age diversity.

• Tailor the environment to meet individual needs, ensuring Health and Safety policies, including Fire Safety, are followed.
• Recruit and manage staff through robust induction, supervision, and training processes, ensuring person-centred schedules and personal development plans.
