A little about us

We like to think of Routes as an incredible team of folk from all walks of life, working together with one thing in common: we all care about making a difference. And that's not just for our clients but for our workers too.

For the last 15 years at Routes, we've been taking pride in what we do: delivering high standards of care that puts people's wants and needs at the heart of it, and letting people live the way they choose in the comfort of their home.

If this sounds like a company you'd like to be part of, we're already on to a winner. But how about we sweeten the deal a little more?

We want to help you flourish in your career — Routes gives you the tools, so you can focus on what truly matters: delivering good care to your community.

What does this mean?

• Centralised support teams to help keep things running smoothly in the background — HR, Payroll, Quality and Marketing to name but a few

• Our in-house recruitment team to make sure you have the staff you need. We pride ourselves on recruiting our own people to deliver our services and have Zero Agency use

• Routes Academy, which not only means the team is highly trained, but both you and our healthcare workers have opportunities to progress your careers and develop

• We recently rolled out Digital Care Plans, making our operations more efficient

• Speaking of digital — we also have our own friendly IT team on hand to help with any IT needs

And of course, just a few extra little perks like...

• Wellbeing and financial support with our Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

• 25 days holiday, additional bank holiday leave plus an extra day off for your birthday

• Saving for future-you with our Pension Scheme

• A competitive salary plus an attractive bonus package based on service performance

• A fun, friendly and supportive workplace (we have many great personalities!)

• Buy and sell holiday scheme

So what do you think?

This role is based at our Preston branch, with the majority of your client visits taking place across the Blackpool area — where Routes also has a satellite branch. You'll predominantly be working in and around Blackpool, with some travel to Preston, so you'll need to be comfortable moving between the two locations. Mileage will be reimbursed for travel to client visits, so you can focus on what matters most — delivering great care. If you're interested in joining Routes as a Healthcare Assessor, here's what we're looking for:

• Someone passionate about putting people first

• At least 1 year's experience working in community care with care plan/risk assessment experience

• Organisational & time management skills

• A good understanding of CQC regulations

• Superb communication skills, with the ability to build relationships with clients and their care team

• An NVQ in Health and Social Care would be a big bonus

• A full valid UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle is essential for this role, given the travel between Blackpool and Preston

Your typical day to day will include:

• Developing care plans and risk assessments

• Overseeing the safe administration of medicines

• Undertaking observations, spot checks and Quality Assurance

• Completing and updating care records on our in-house systems

• Assisting your Registered Manager to deliver a high-quality care service

• Managing on-call duties on a rotating basis

This could be the start of an incredible journey together, changing lives for people in our community. We look forward to hearing from you!
