The Perfect Fit For You
Thames Homecare Service work with a broad range of service users, each with unique needs and personal preferences. As such, we aim to build care worker teams which are as diverse as possible, encouraging applications from people of all ages, genders, ethnic and religious backgrounds. Anyone who has the right to work in the UK and a good working knowledge of spoken and written English may apply. If you have your own means of transport, this may also be an advantage.
Please be aware that due to the vulnerable nature of the people that use our services, all applicants are also required to undergo a criminal records disclosure.
We take great care in recruiting staff who:
- Show compassion and kindness
- Demonstrate high standards of honesty, integrity and competence
- Who we think you will get along with
We carry out a rigorous vetting process prior to employment with us which includes:
- Applying for a full enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check (previously known as a Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) check)
- Receiving confirmation from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) that the person is not a risk to vulnerable adults
- Receipt of at least two references, including one from their most recent employer
