Careers

Nursing

At the heart of Shaw are our nurses and we are looking to support those starting their journey as a registered Nurse and to develop and nurture those who are already experienced nurses. We offer excellent career opportunities and provide regular training to help you achieve senior roles.


Role examples: RMN, RGN, Staff Nurse, Clinical Lead, Team Leader Nursing


Delivering Care

These are hugely important roles to those in our care.  These individuals are placed in positions of great trust; Kind, patient, considerate and caring interactions are vital to ensure the wellness and happiness of those we care for. We provide comprehensive training for all types of people, those with no experience looking to start a career in care to dedicated qualifications for experienced carers looking to specialise in a specific field of care.

Role examples: Support Worker, Senior Support Worker

 

Creating a caring environment

Good care is a part of a greater sum, of course, those delivering the care are essential but other roles in the Shaw family take good care to great care. We value highly people who ensure safe and clean environments, those who entertain and provide leisurely exercise, those that make sure services run smoothly and enable others to do their jobs well.


Role examples: Domestic Assistant, Activity Champion, Maintenance Operative, Service Administrator, Concierge

Managing Care

Managerial roles are often key to the success of the happiness of those living and working within a service. Their ability to be aware of their teams’ strengths and to apply them effectively whilst motivating and developing them means that we can deliver the quality of care that we would expect for our own loved ones. Their role is to champion the safety, dignity and independence of those in their care.


Role examples: Service Manager, Deputy Manager, Unit Manager, Team Leader

 

Catering

Mealtimes are opportunities to be social and we want our dining experiences to be pleasurable from beginning to end - Well laid out dining areas and tables, tasty and well-presented food, consideration for dietary and cultural requirements, well timed service – we offer many roles where catering skills can be used to enhance individuals’ experience of care.

Role examples: Cook, Senior Cook, Catering Assistant

Dear Relatives,

We would like to thank you for your ongoing support of all our care homes and hard-working staff throughout the past year. It has been an incredibly challenging year for everyone, and we recognise the impact that the pandemic has had on all those connected to our homes and within our local communities. We are now hopefully seeing a way back to normal and look forward to opening our doors fully in the coming months.

However, following the recent announcement by the government, we are pleased to advise that from Monday 12th April 2021 our care homes in England will be able to allow visits from 2 named visitors(subject to a negative Lateral Flow Test and PPE being worn). We will also be extending visiting into the weekends as long as it is booked in advance. Your care home will discuss with you the guidelines we need to follow for you to become a named visitor.

Furthermore, we are also delighted to announce that for the first-time visits can include a child or baby. Children under the age of 2 will not count towards the 2 named visitor quota. Clearly, visits involving children will need to be carefully managed and in agreement with the home manager. As per the guidance those over the age of 11 will need to wear PPE and be tested (with parental consent).

Another development in the new approach to visiting is the nomination of an ‘essential care giver’. The essential care giver role is intended as a way of supporting the relatively small proportion of our residents who need some element of care and support that could only ever be provided by someone with a unique personal relationship with the resident, perhaps formed over many years. It is likely that this person will already be part of the ongoing care plan for the resident. All this will be at the discretion of the manager and the care giver will be subject to the rigorous testing regime currently undertaken by our own staff. Please speak with your Home Manager for further details.

In summary from 12th April 2021 the new government guidelines for care home visits allow for;

1. 2 named visitors (see the guidance for help on how you could become a named visitor and what restrictions apply)

2. Children can also visit with those under the age of 2 not counted as part of the 2 named visitor quota (see the guidance for help and what restrictions apply)

3. A person can apply for essential carer status but this will need to assessed and agreed by the Home Manager and is subject to rigorous testing.
