The length of time the Registration process takes will depend on several factors, such as:
– How long it takes Access NI to process the application.
– How long it takes the Referees to return references.
– How long it takes the Applicant to complete the mandatory training.
– How long it takes the Applicant to complete induction/supervision.
We will endeavour to ensure that all applicants complete the recruitment/registration process as soon as possible.

Our preference is that you will have at least 3 months continuous experience within the last year or more than 6 months experience within the last three years. We may, however, offer applicants without any experience, but who show an enthusiasm and commitment to work in care, a pathway into care giving.

All mandatory training (online and practical) is provided free of charge. Optional additional free training is also made available online, to all registrants wanting to improve their knowledge.

Narra Care Services needs to ensure that the quality of the training you have received is adequate and up to the standard that we expect. Therefore, we are not able to accept any training certificates that you may be in possession of, unless it is with a training provider that we currently use or are satisfied with.

You will be advised of your hourly rate prior to accepting shifts. Enhancements are paid for working nights, weekends, and bank holidays.

Holiday pay is included in your hourly rate as illustrated in the Key Information Document (KID) that will be provided to you during registration.

Our main area of expertise is in the private sector where we currently offer shifts in Nursing Homes and Residential homes.

Generally, our clients request us to provide cover for standard shift patterns 24 hours a day seven days a week. These are as follows: – Day shift 08:00 – 20:00 – Night Shift 20:00 – 08:00 Occasionally we may receive a request for a slight variation of the usual shift pattern.

No, there is no requirement for anyone registered with the employment agency to drive. Prior to accepting any shift, you must ensure that you have the means to get to the jobsite.

As an employment agency we are unable to guarantee full time or part time hours for any of our registrants. What we can guarantee, is that we will endeavour to offer our registrants, as many shifts as they require.
