Hiring carers in Stoke-on-Trent and the towns around it

The city boundary is easy to cross without noticing. Newcastle-under-Lyme, Kidsgrove and Biddulph run straight on from the Potteries but sit in Staffordshire, and the county council has itself pointed to supply challenges in those areas. For a Stoke employer that means the carer best placed to cover a Tunstall or Burslem round might live in Kidsgrove, and a search tied to the city boundary would miss them.

Carer Badge searches by distance from your own postcode, so those people appear if they are within range. Profiles show postcode district, travel distance, driving and availability, which helps when you are building rounds along a city that stretches several miles from north to south. Nursing homes can also see which registered nurses have had their NMC registration checked, useful when Royal Stoke and County Hospital in Stafford are recruiting from the same pool of nurses. A younger local population than the national average means you may meet plenty of carers early in their careers, and profiles that list training completed so far help you judge who is ready for which role.

78% of the inspected care employers in Stoke-on-Trent are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, close to the 79% across the West Midlands and below England as a whole (85%).

Questions about recruiting in Stoke-on-Trent

Will carers in Newcastle-under-Lyme or Kidsgrove show up when I search from Stoke?

Yes, if they fall within your chosen distance. Search uses miles from your postcode rather than council area, so the towns that run on from the Potteries are included.

Can I find carers who don't drive but live close to my service?

Yes. Profiles show each carer's postcode district and whether they drive, so in a compact city with a decent bus network you can include non drivers who live nearby and still cover a tight round.
