Longlands Care Home is situated in a quiet residential location in Blackbird Leys in Oxford. Our home is at the heart of a very active local community. We offer a friendly, comfortable environment with a skilled and enthusiastic team that is all about person-centred care.

We are looking for you to work as a care assistant, making a real difference to our residents' lives every day. Along with supporting daily routines and personal care (washing, bathing, supporting toilet use), we are looking for the right people to genuinely care for our residents and create a happy, fulfilled life for them. Some days may be challenging, but you will laugh, have fun and make lasting memories. You’ll become part of our extended family too, bringing kindness, exceptional care and dignity to our care homes. We are looking for both experienced carers and those who are new to care to build our teams with diverse people who can bring all sorts of life experience to the job. We provide induction training and support, with ongoing development opportunities for you to really build a career with us. You will be a great communicator and able to build relationships and positive working and living environments. We’d love you to love your job.
