Nightingale Hammerson is an independent charity and a leading specialist in the care of older people. We have served the Jewish community since 1840. We have two care homes, Nightingale House in Clapham and Hammerson House in East Finchley.
Nightingale House offers a warm and comfortable environment, with personalised care that centralises the needs of the residents, with on-site therapists, dieticians, and a wealth of activities for residents to enjoy.
The Role
Are you deeply driven to help others? Do you have the desire to do this in a creative and personal manner? Being an engagement lead may well be the job you have been looking for.
It is a human need to engage with the world and with each other in a meaningful way. But what does this engagement look like? There are as many answers to that question as there are people in the world. For those who are older and disabled it is a great challenge to maintain the relationships and activities that have supported them through life. As engagement leads at Hammerson House it is our challenge to help them do so and, taking a person centred approach, results in a wide and ever shifting variety of activities and individual interventions for our residents. We are a large and innovative organisation that is always trying to develop new ways to foster community and connect our residents with what matters to them.
We are specifically looking for a new member of the team to work with our residents living with dementia and while this does present particular challenges the rewards are also particularly high.
This is a job of tremendous variety and possibilities and requires individuals who have the energy, people skills and logistical know-how to bring the right ideas to fruition. Experience of working in care is not a necessity and we would welcome candidates with a diverse range of people-facing experiences and those with creative backgrounds. Experience of supporting people with dementia or other neurological conditions would be desirable.
