Recruiting for care services between Bath, Keynsham and the Somer Valley

The area splits into fairly distinct pools of workers. Bath itself is home to two universities and a large student population, Keynsham and the Chew Valley face towards Bristol, and Radstock and Midsomer Norton look south into Somerset. A service in one part of the district may find its best candidates live just outside it, in Bristol, Wiltshire or Somerset, rather than across the other side of Bath.

Nursing homes make up a sizeable part of local provision and compete with the RUH and Sulis Hospital for registered nurses, so nurses already living nearby are worth finding early. For home care in the Chew Valley or the villages around the Somer Valley, a car is usually essential, so a carer's driving status is often the first thing to check.

Carer Badge lets you look for carers near a Radstock or Keynsham service even when they live over the line in Somerset or Bristol, and see their stated hours before you call.

77% of the inspected care employers in Bath and North East Somerset are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, below the 90% across the South West and below England as a whole (85%).

Questions about recruiting in Bath and North East Somerset

Can we find carers in Bristol for a service near Keynsham?

Yes. Results are based on how far a carer is from you and how far they will travel, not which council they live in, so Bristol based carers appear if the distance suits them.

How can we fill weekend shifts in Bath?

Look for profiles that list weekend availability. With two universities in the city, some carers want part time weekend or evening work, and their availability is shown on the profile.
