Values Based Recruitment

At Nightingale we recruit based on our Values which are critical to the ethos of the care home. We recruit keen team members who share our mission to improve care home standards. We carefully select new team members with an innate sense of how to care for our residents with dignity and kindness at all times.

How We Support You

With over 40 team members supporting our residents, we have a high ratio of team members to residents. We believe everyone in our team is an Ambassador for Nightingale Care Home, and in return we are committed to providing a positive place to work.

We acknowledge that it can be challenging to settle into a new and demanding role, especially if you are new to the care industry. That’s why we have a three-pillar support system for new team members to enable you to succeed with us:

Our Home Manager will welcome and support you when you start, ensuring the role is what you were expecting and having regular catch ups to discuss any issues, queries or problems
Our Recruitment, Onboarding and Engagement support team will keep in touch with new starters until their first day with us. Once you have started they will keep in touch, with a call after one week, one month and then 3 months to discuss how you’re settling and any concerns you may have
Our New Starter Champions are your ‘buddy’ within the home. You can discuss anything with them and ask them any questions you need to in order to help you settle in. They are there to offer confidential support and advice on matters you may not wish to discuss with your manager

This approach is in place to ensure new starters are content and find their new role rewarding.

Remuneration

We know working in the care sector is hard work and emotionally demanding, albeit extremely personally rewarding. That’s why we are committed to the National Living Wage and actually pay all team members in excess of the National Living Wage. We believe in thanking and rewarding our team as much as possible for the amazing work they do.

We have three levels of pay for each role: team member performing in line with expectations, team member performing below expectations and team member performing above expectations. We firmly believe that those ‘going the extra mile’ should be personally and financially rewarded.

Incentives and Benefits

As well as a salary we also offer team members many additional financial incentives. These include:

Bonusly Peer to Peer Recognition Incentive
Training Incentive for Completion of Diplomas in Care (NVQs)
Refer a Friend Incentive
CQC Compliance – Thankyou Scheme
Ambassadorship Incentives
Long Service Recognition Incentives
Bike Incentive & Loan Scheme
Interest Free Loans

Employer Assistant Program (EAP)
Extra Payments for Short Notice Shifts
Jasmine Pension Scheme
Mandatory Training Incentive – New Team Members & Ongoing

We aspire to have the best team retention across the elderly care home industry and this is why we do so many things that most of the care home industry does not do:

Pay all our team well in excess of the National Living Wage
Offer all our team many additional incentives and rewards for going above and beyond for our residents
Allocate every new team member a New Starter Champion to support them for their first year
Offer our team meaningful rewards for completing Diploma in Care qualifications
Pay all training course fees
