Recruiting in Stockton-on-Tees
Finding staff across Stockton's seven towns
Stockton-on-Tees has an even split between home care and residential care, which means both kinds of service are fishing in the same local pool. The borough is spread across several distinct towns, and the river runs through the middle of it, so a carer in Billingham and a round in Ingleby Barwick can be further apart in practice than they look on a map.
The population is changing too. People aged 65 to 74 rose by nearly a third between the last two censuses, and the CQC notes that Stockton has the third largest Asian or Asian British community in the North East. A carer who shares a first language with the person they support can make a real difference to some families, and on Carer Badge you can narrow a search to the language you need.
The University Hospital of North Tees recruits nurses and healthcare assistants from the same towns, so nursing homes in particular feel the pull. Looking at who lives near each of your services, rather than across the whole borough, usually gives a shorter and more realistic list.
94% of the inspected care employers in Stockton-on-Tees are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, close to the 93% across the North East and above England as a whole (85%).
