A bit about the role At Clanmil, our tenants and residents are at the heart of what we do, and we want to provide more great homes for families that need them. Our care teams are focused on person centred care, developing outcome based support plans, and continually reviewing those to ensure positive improvements.

Your previous experience will include the creation and maintenance of care and support plans, administration of medication and experience of staff supervision in the workplace is also essential. 24hr residential care means this is not just a 9-5 job and 10 sleep ins are essential every month.
