What We Look for in Care Workers – Insights from Seven Care Services’ HR Team

At Seven Care Services, we are committed to delivering high-quality, permanent care to individuals with autism, learning disabilities, mental health needs, and complex care requirements across Coventry, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Leicestershire, and Solihull. 

 

We specialise in 1:1 and 2:1 care packages, ensuring that service users receive the personalised attention and support they need to live safely and independently.

Our service includes highly complex care, supporting individuals who require tracheostomy care, suctioning, PEG feeding, and other clinical interventions, all under the oversight of our dedicated Clinical Nurse Lead. 

 

We are proud to be rated ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), reflecting our commitment to safe, effective, and person-centred care.
