Recruiting in Windsor and Maidenhead

Finding carers for the Royal Borough when your neighbours are recruiting too

The borough is small, at under 200 square kilometres, and its edges matter for recruitment. Slough, Bracknell Forest and Wokingham border it, Buckinghamshire sits just across the Thames from Maidenhead, and Surrey begins beyond Old Windsor and Sunningdale. A good share of the people who could staff a Windsor or Maidenhead rota will live in one of those neighbouring areas, so recruiting only from inside the borough line narrows the field for no real reason.

Nursing homes make up a larger part of local provision than usual, and they share a nurse labour market with Frimley Health's hospitals at Wexham Park and Heatherwood and with Berkshire Healthcare's community teams in Maidenhead and Windsor. Home care, meanwhile, often means moving between towns and villages where the bus is not always practical, so knowing who drives matters early.

On Carer Badge, a Slough or Bracknell carer who will travel to your service shows up alongside local applicants, with their driving status on the profile.

71% of the inspected care employers in Windsor and Maidenhead are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, below the 84% across the South East and below England as a whole (85%).
