Recruiting in Enfield

Matching Enfield carers to where your clients actually live

Enfield's older residents cluster in the western wards around Cockfosters, Highlands and Grange, but more than a third of the borough is Green Belt, so homes in the west and north are spread out and a round there can involve real distances. The east is denser and closer to the Overground and the bus corridors into Edmonton, which means a carer without a car may find eastern rounds far easier to reach than western ones. Planning rounds around where staff actually live, rather than where your office is, tends to pay off here.

Language is a genuine recruiting asset. Nearly 19,000 residents gave Turkish as their main language at the last census and almost 5,000 more named Polish, so a carer who shares a client's language can make a package work better for everyone.

Competition for health and care staff is close at hand too. Royal Free London now runs both North Middlesex University Hospital and Chase Farm Hospital, so healthcare assistants and nurses have NHS options at either end of the borough. On Carer Badge you can look for people already living near a western round or an Edmonton care home, whichever side of the borough line they are on.

83% of the inspected care employers in Enfield are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, below the 88% across London and in line with England as a whole (85%).
