Residential Care Manager

Be a leader who empowers your team to develop while providing the kind of care that changes lives, when you join Signature Senior Lifestyle as a Residential Care Manager at our luxury care and nursing home in Reigate.

Our Residential Care Manager will be leading from the front, using your deep understanding of care provision to ensure that resident care is of the highest standard, your team feel supported to do their best work, and we recruit the best candidates to join our care team.

You'll be responsible for overseeing all elements of residents' care, including assessing new residents needs when they move in, creating, monitoring and updating care plans, ensuring safe medication management, identifying additional nursing or dementia needs, and acting as an advocate for all residents, with specific awareness of safeguarding, mental capacity and deprivation of liberties.

You'll also be a supportive and caring manager. From the moment a team member starts, you'll ensure they receive an effective induction, provide ongoing guidance, review their progress, provide clear objectives to work towards and identify training needs. You'll be their mentor and someone they can rely on in a difficult or emergency situation.

We are kind and compassionate. Positive and resilient. Proactive and organised. Honest and accountable. Passionate and keen to develop. If this sounds like you, you'll fit right in.

As well as being decisive, confident and assertive, an NVQ Level 4 in Health & Social care, two years' experience in long-term care or a similar role, and comprehensive understanding of CQC Fundamental Standards are a big advantage.
