Recruiting in Gateshead

Recruiting care staff across Gateshead and over the river

Gateshead employers share a labour market with Newcastle, South Tyneside and the north of County Durham. The Metro, the bridges and the A1 make commuting into the borough easy from several directions, so the right carer for a home in Low Fell or a round in Felling may well live outside Gateshead altogether. The western villages are a different matter, and rounds there rely on carers who drive.

Carer Badge search works by distance from your postcode, so carers in Newcastle, Jarrow or Chester-le-Street can appear in a Gateshead search if they live close enough. Profiles show postcode district, travel distance, whether they drive with their own car and availability, which helps you match carers to a round near the river or out towards Ryton.

Nursing homes compete with the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and the Newcastle hospitals for nurses. Nurse profiles show when we have checked a registration against the NMC register, so you know before you call.

95% of the inspected care employers in Gateshead are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, close to the 93% across the North East and above England as a whole (85%).
