Beaumont Care Homes philosophy: we aim to provide a safe, clean, relaxed and homely environment in which care, wellbeing and comfort are of prime importance. Beaumont Care Homes have residential and nursing homes across Northern Ireland; in Belfast, Bangor, Ballymena, Comber, Donaghadee, Dunmurray, Jordanstown, Hillsborough, Holywood, Lisburn, and Newtownabbey. We provide a safe, clean, relaxed and homely environment for all our residents, where care, wellbeing and comfort are of prime importance and where our staff feel is the best place to work in the care sector.

The atmosphere in all our homes is welcoming and inviting while our healthcare staff are professional and ready to care, delivering a home-from-home feeling that helps the transition from home or hospital easier and less stressful. Beaumont Care Homes staff undergo regular training to guarantee they provide the best one-to-one and person-centred care possible. All our staff are encouraged to develop their skills and continue on a career pathway.

We believe in healthy, homemade food, and our trained chefs prepare tasty, exciting, and appealing meals to various tastes, regardless of appetite or culture.

Beaumont Care Homes offer varied activities, from trips out and summer fetes to indoor activities including arts and crafts, pamper sessions and visiting entertainment. We also have visiting dog therapists and other animals, with intergenerational activities involving local nurseries and schools.

Our team of healthcare professionals supports people living with dementia, while also providing nursing care and other specialist care services. We can offer respite care in our homes. We want people to join Beaumont Care who wish to work with older and vulnerable people. Ideally, we are looking for someone who is caring and has a can-do attitude.

Our senior managers have often begun their working life as carers, which we recognise as essential to our service, and then climbed the career ladder to become Home and Regional Managers.

We provide professional training, personal development and promotion paths to support and progress you. Working at our residents home will be stimulating and rewarding, as we maintain high care standards.
