Recruiting in South Gloucestershire
Finding carers on Bristol's northern and eastern fringe
Recruiting in South Gloucestershire means recruiting alongside Bristol. Your service may be in Kingswood or Bradley Stoke, but your best candidates could live in Fishponds, Lockleaze or Keynsham, and the area's large aerospace, defence and logistics employers around Filton and Stoke Gifford compete for local workers too. The rural north, around Thornbury and the villages towards the Severn, is harder to staff, and home care rounds there depend on carers who drive.
Carer Badge searches by distance from your postcode, so a Yate agency sees carers in Chipping Sodbury and the eastern edge of Bristol in the same list. Each profile shows the carer's postcode district, whether they drive with their own car, how far they will travel and when they are available. Southmead Hospital recruits from the same area, so it matters that nurses here can show Carer Badge has checked their place on the NMC register. For a home care round you can also check who lives within a few miles of your busiest postcodes before you advertise at all.
95% of the inspected care employers in South Gloucestershire are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, above the 90% across the South West and above England as a whole (85%).

Questions about recruiting in South Gloucestershire
Will carers living inside the Bristol city boundary appear in my search?
Yes. Search uses distance from your postcode rather than council boundaries, so carers in Bristol, Bath and North East Somerset or Gloucestershire appear if they are within the radius you choose.
Can I find carers who drive for rounds around Thornbury?
Yes. Filter to carers who drive with their own car and search from a Thornbury postcode. Each profile also shows how far that carer is willing to travel.
