Care UK is the Health in Justice market leader, providing healthcare services to offenders across the country. 

Our model of care is our Wellbeing Approach – an integrated, comprehensive approach in recognition of the fact prisoners are a socially-excluded group with healthcare needs which are complex and often associated with poor outcomes. It adopts the premise no single health/wellbeing factor can be taken in isolation of other motivational issues which might impact a person’s care.

As a valued employee of Care UK, we will ensure that we offer you a salary of £95,000 - £110,000 per annum including pension scheme, indemnity, on-going training and development as well designated study leave days and good quality working conditions.
