Recruitment and Retention

GTA Social Care understands the recruitment and retention issues faced by most employers within the Social Care sector and provides you with an alternative way to address these issues.

Your staff are a valuable commodity, investing in them will always pay dividends for the future. Effectively planning to meet the training and development needs of a whole workforce demonstrates your commitment to them and to the needs of the people who use your services.

Staff who are competent and understand their roles, offer higher quality care and support. We only provide training which has been recognised as excellent by the National Skills Academy for Social Care, this means that you can be assured that the training your service receives is of the highest standard. The Care Quality Commission expects providers to manage quality by employing the right people.

We can support you in filling your staff vacancies; we have many individuals seeking employment within social care roles. This fresh approach to finding new talent for our sector will drive up the skills base of organisations. For many vacancies we have access to funding to be able to finance their training. This funding may also extend to the rest of your workforce.

We work with schools and the unemployed to raise the profile of the sector, and to attract the next generation of employees into our workforces. It is our aim that employers will look towards GTA Social Care to support in filling staffing vacancies with people eager to work in our sector. Once they are working in Social Care we will support with their training and development throughout their career.
