Care firm launches recruitment drive to fill 100 jobs at new Cannock care home prior to 2025 opening

Exemplar Health Care says it's now recruiting for its Coronation Court care home, currently under-construction in Hunter Road near Cannock town centre and expected to be completed by January 2025. 

The company says around 100 new jobs are set to be created at the facility, with recruitment underway for Registered Nurses, Unit Managers, Catering Assistants, and other care and support roles via the company's website.

Once open, Coronation Court will support adults living with complex needs arising from brain injuries, dementia, mental health conditions, neuro-disabilities and physical disabilities, providing long-term community care for individuals who would otherwise have a pro-longed stay in hospital or other inappropriate setting.

"We’re excited to open Coronation Court in the new year, where we will provide state-of-the-art healthcare services to the Cannock community. To ensure we offer the best care possible, we are hiring for over 100 new roles that will begin in the coming weeks," said Katie Land, Home Manager at Exemplar Health Care.

“We’re looking for individuals who are compassionate and share Exemplar Health Care’s core values, including being responsive to the needs of the people we support, having integrity in everything they do, working well in a team, and bringing a sense of fun to their role."

The home, located on the former Hunter Road car park, will have 33 large bedrooms, each with an en-suite, split across three units. The home will also have communal dining and living spaces, sensory bathrooms, an activities hub, a beauty salon, a therapy room, and a large accessible garden.

“This is an excellent opportunity for those seeking a career change, as all new colleagues will receive comprehensive support through a tailored induction programme and ongoing development through our Exemplar Healthcare Academy and Leadership Pathways," added Ms Land.

“The organisation is passionate about giving people the skills and training needed to advance their careers, create the next generation of care leaders, and make sure the people living in our homes can live their best lives. There are so many training opportunities and ways that team members can take on champion roles within our home, that I truly believe this is the best place to build a career in care.

“Working in care allows you to have a profoundly positive impact on the lives of the people in our local community who need extra support to live well and make the most of every day. It is a highly rewarding job with clear career development and advancement opportunities."
