About Chirk Court

Home to older adults, including residents living with dementia, the home is designed around five smaller household-style communities. Rather than supporting many residents at once, you'll typically support around 14 residents within their own household area.

This creates a calmer, more personal environment where residents are truly known as individuals and meaningful relationships can be built every day.

We're also proud of our sensory garden, which provides a peaceful space for residents to relax, socialise and enjoy the outdoors. The garden has even received recognition from The King for the positive impact it has had on residents and the wider community.

This isn't a rushed, faceless service. We take pride in creating a place where residents feel safe and valued, families feel reassured, and colleagues genuinely support one another.

For many residents, Chirk Court is home – and the people who work here help make it feel that way every day.

What you day might look like

No two days are the same, but you can expect to:

• Support residents with personal care, including washing, dressing, mobility and toileting
• Assist residents with meals, hydration and nutrition
• Support residents living with dementia with patience and understanding
• Spend time talking, listening and building relationships with residents
• Help residents feel comfortable, safe and socially engaged
• Support with medication following training and procedures
• Maintain accurate care records
• Respond calmly and compassionately to changing needs
• Help create a warm, respectful and homely environment

What we're looking for

We're keen to hear from people who:

• Are kind, patient and compassionate
• Enjoy helping others and making a difference
• Work well as part of a team
• Are reliable and willing to learn
• Can build positive relationships with residents, families and colleagues
• Understand the importance of dignity, respect and person-centred care

Previous care experience is welcome, but it isn't essential. What matters most is your attitude and willingness to learn.

If you don't already hold a Level 2 qualification in Health & Social Care, we'll support you to achieve it. We'll also help you register with Social Care Wales and continue developing your career in care.
