You work 38.5 to 40 hours per week on a 24/7 rota: 06:00 to 14:30, 13:30 to 21:30, 21:00 to 06:30, with 2 to 7 night shifts in a monthly roster. The work is turning bedridden residents every 2 hours, transfers with Arjo Maxi Move and Molift Partner 255 hoists and slide sheets, bed baths and assisted showering, changing incontinence pads, emptying catheter and stoma bags, feeding residents with dysphagia, checks with Omron and Welch Allyn monitors and Accu-Chek meters, plus disinfecting commodes, wheelchairs and hoists.
About 50% to 60% of the shift is heavy bodily care, 20% to 25% is tablet or PC notes in MediFox, Vivendi, Person Centred Software, CareKarte or PointClickCare plus a 30-minute handover, and only 15% to 20% is talk and companionship.
