Description
Care service provider Caremark Broxtowe & Erewash announced plans to create 100 new jobs. The company, based in Long Eaton (Derbyshire), provides care services to enable elderly people to continue to live in their own homes. It has recently doubled the amount of care hours to 1,400 per week and it is seeking to increase it to 2,000 per week. A spokesperson for the business commented that they were confident of hitting that target, given reduction in hospital admissions and increased life expectancy. The new jobs are planned to be added over the coming twelve months.
