Our Brilliant Team!

We want to take the time to celebrate our fantastic Staff, who go the extra mile for their Clients every single day. Without them, Caremark would not exist! Working in social care is an extremely rewarding role, but it comes with challenges like any other job. Our brilliant Support Workers and Management Team are the most passionate, dedicated and caring individuals and we are so proud of the commitment and compassion which they bring to their work.

Our High Retention Rate

The turnover rate within the UK social care industry is estimated to be around 31%, and Caremark continues to defy the odds. Our staff retention sits at 95%, and 28 of our Team have been with us for over two years now- which is absolutely incredible. One of our main commitments is ensuring that our Staff feel supported, confident in their ability to support clients, and happy to come to work each day. At the core of this, we ensure that our Team is built up of people who contribute to our strong company culture- in which we recognise and champion each other’s achievements and hard work, and empower each other to be the best we possibly can.

The Caremark Community

We value inclusion, and work hard to make sure that our Team feels like a community! We are a diverse group, and we love to celebrate this. We celebrate Christmas, Easter, Eid, Pride Month and more as a team- and will always ensure that no matter what your background is, you will feel welcomed and represented when you join us at Caremark. As part of this, we understand that you have a life outside of your work and are keen to contribute to a healthy work-life balance. We offer flexibility in shifts to fit around your personal commitments. We’re also proud to provide a solid structure whilst you are working through our block hour visits and believe this is beneficial for both our Clients and Support Workers.

We recently conducted our Staff Surveys, and were thrilled to receive some glowing feedback from the Team:

Every member of the Caremark Rotherham and Sheffield Team have been exceptional, I have seen firsthand how the company worker welfare has grown over my time at this company, I am more confident now than ever before, beautiful support from all the team”We recently conducted our Staff Surveys, and were thrilled to receive some glowing feedback from the Team:

Our Confident, Committed and Highly Trained Staff

Confidence is key at Caremark. Our Support Workers are some of the most highly trained in the industry, and consistently provide an excellent standard of care to their Clients. As a team, they complete almost 3000 hours of training each year. This provides them with a broad, comprehensive understanding of complex and clinical needs, and allows them to support their Clients at an outstanding level. Additional training is made available to anybody who would like to upskill or enhance their knowledge in a specific area. Each time we offer a new training opportunity, we are consistently seeing a huge uptake of Support Workers who are keen to develop themselves professionally. It’s always a brilliant reminder of the commitment and motivation that our Staff demonstrate!

We Value Our Team

We make sure to show our Staff how much we appreciate them and offer a range of benefits through our attractive remuneration package. As part of this, Staff are automatically entitled to a paid day off on their birthday. We have recently provided our Team with access to a free Blue Light Card, which can be used to unlock a range of discounts to popular stores and brands. Additionally, our quarterly HALO Award is a great opportunity for us to recognise and thank those who consistently go the extra mile for their Clients. The winner receives up to £200 each quarter in either cash or a gift voucher! We constantly review our Staff recognition initiatives, and always welcome any feedback from the Team surrounding how we can improve our offering.

We want to thank our Team for all of their ongoing hard work and dedication. Together, we are able to support our Clients to live the best lives they possibly can, and make a huge impact on their lives. None of this is possible without you, and we are incredibly proud to work with such a brilliant, committed group of people. Keep it up!
