Recruiting in Doncaster

Recruiting care staff across Doncaster's towns and villages

Because the borough is so spread out, a carer in Thorne is a long way from a service in Conisbrough, even though both are Doncaster. Recruitment works best when it is local to each patch, so it usually makes sense to look first in the nearest town rather than the city centre. Some of the best candidates may also live over the border in Rotherham, Barnsley, Bassetlaw or the East Riding.

Nursing homes are a smaller share of provision here than care homes or home care, and they recruit registered nurses against Doncaster Royal Infirmary, Montagu and Bassetlaw hospitals and RDaSH's community and mental health services. Doncaster College's Adult Care Worker and Lead Adult Care Worker apprenticeships give another route for training up new staff.

With Carer Badge, an Askern or Bawtry service can search for carers by their distance from its own address and see whether they drive, rather than trawling the whole borough.

88% of the inspected care employers in Doncaster are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC, above the 84% across Yorkshire and Humberside and above England as a whole (85%).
