About The Role
What was it that made you decide to become a nurse?
• Did you want to provide Kind Care and make a difference to people in need?
• Was it your love of learning, and the opportunity to work closely with multi-professional teams in a field that is constantly evolving?
Whatever your reason, at HC-One, the Kind Care Company, we can offer you a career where your kindness will be truly rewarded.
We are looking for enthusiastic and committed registered nurses to join our brand-new Flex Force team. Flex Force is the ideal solution as you can work the contracted hours to suit you, with guaranteed set pay each month. What’s more, you can select your shifts to work flexibly around your studies, family life or other commitments. While shifts will be offered as required by our care home across the West Lothian area, you will remain in control of your working week and the shifts you pick up.
The homes include Redmill (EH47 0PN), Linlithgow (EH47 7BW).
Flex Force at HC-One
We understand the importance of having flexibility in your work schedule, especially when it comes to caring for others. That’s why HC-One has introduced our Flex Force initiative, giving you the freedom to choose the contracted hours you work within a 12-week cycle.
The freedom doesn’t end there, you can choose your preferred shifts and work across several care homes. By committing to a set number of hours, you can have peace of mind knowing you’ll have a permanent contract and consistent pay, with all additional hours worked paid at the end of each 12-week cycle.
Whether you are at the start of your exciting career journey, or have years of experience as a registered nurse, working within a care home environment can be incredibly rewarding.
It embodies the practice of nursing, all while building meaningful, long-lasting relationships with Residents and their loved ones.
As a registered nurse at HC-One, you will build on your existing skill set, practicing in a nurse-led environment, developing complex decision making and collaborative skills - to name but a few! You will make a difference to our Residents at a time of their life when they may feel the most vulnerable, and they will look to you to guide and support them in life-changing decisions, which is a humbling and unbelievably rewarding part of the role.
You will be a registered nurse with a valid Pin number and will understand your commitment to your profession through the standards of practice set by the NMC.
You will have a passion to mentor and share your knowledge with your Colleagues, along with providing support as a practice supervisor and assessor to students. You will understand the importance of effective communication, both verbally and written, and role model professional behaviours.
You will advocate and deliver a person-centred approach to care for the people living in our care home and their families.
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and therefore it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
At HC-One, our purpose is to support those in our care to lead their best lives. As the Kind Care Company, it is our mission to provide the kindest support and care to Residents living in our care homes, as we strive to be the first-choice care provider for Families, our Colleagues and Commissioners in each of the communities that we serve.
We are passionate about ensuring that our current and future Colleagues can be their true selves, and that our workforce represents the communities we serve. We prioritise inclusive working practices and invite applicants from all backgrounds into our HC-One family.
We have a dedicated and professional workforce that strives to always deliver outstanding nursing care. We care about our talented teams and support them in their professional and personal growth.
We are committed to developing people that work for us through robust career pathways, CPD and post graduate programmes.
At HC-One, we ensure that your career is fulfilling and varied so that you feel empowered in your practice and delivery of evidence-based Kind Care.
We are a diverse and inclusive company, and we focus on learning from and with each other.
