How to apply
Your application
must include the written task below.
Applications without it will not be considered.
The task
Before you apply: read these three notes
MONDAY: “Ate about half his dinner. Quiet today.”
TUESDAY: “Slept in until 10. Said he was tired. Declined his walk.”
WEDNESDAY: “Didn't finish his tea. Several trips to the toilet overnight. A bit confused about the day.”
They were written on three consecutive days about the same man, by three different care workers. Each note was filed correctly. Nobody joined them up.
If you can see what is probably happening here, this job is for you. If you cannot see it yet, it is probably not - and we would rather you knew that in the first thirty seconds than after a month. Noticing this, every day, across every person we support, is the job. Everything else in this advert supports it.
