In Good Hands, Changing the Language of Disability Care Recruitment

 The disability care sector is filled with language that promises a lot: person-centred care, complex needs, inclusion, independence. But for those navigating this space daily – whether as a care provider, support worker, or individual in need of support – these are not just phrases. They are essential realities that require genuine commitment.




At Soluna Recruitment, we understand that words like "values-based recruitment" and "outcome-focused care" are meaningless without action. That’s why we’re building a different kind of recruitment agency – one that connects people, not just profiles, and supports not just placements, but lasting relationships in the disability care sector.

Understanding the Landscape of Disability Care

Disability care is not one-size-fits-all. It's a deeply diverse sector with a wide range of settings and support needs. Soluna Recruitment works across key segments, ensuring each placement aligns with the environment and expectations of the role.

  • Supported Living: Many of the individuals we support live semi-independently, needing carers who promote autonomy and dignity while providing essential day-to-day assistance.

  • Complex Needs & PMLD: For those with profound and multiple learning disabilities, we recruit support workers and healthcare professionals with specialist training in communication strategies, mobility assistance, and Positive Behaviour Support (PBS).

  • Transition Support: Young people moving from school-based care to adult services need a different kind of support. We place staff who understand the importance of patience, adaptability, and empowerment.

  • Domiciliary Care: Home-based care is all about trust. We ensure the professionals we place are not only skilled but also attuned to working independently, often under minimal supervision.

  • Day Services & Outreach: From skill-building workshops to community integration, these roles require creativity, communication, and a genuine belief in inclusion.

Recruiting for Values, Not Just Skills

One of Soluna’s core beliefs is that the right person isn’t always the one with the longest CV. Instead, we focus on values: empathy, resilience, emotional intelligence, and respect.

We know that a carer who truly listens, communicates clearly, and acts with dignity can make the difference between care that merely functions and care that transforms lives. That’s why our recruitment process includes real conversations, not just box-ticking.

Care isn’t just about the tasks; it’s about the experience. And when we place a candidate in a supported living facility, residential care home, or day service, we do so knowing they are prepared, passionate, and aligned with the unique culture of that environment.

Behind the Job Title: The Hidden Roles of Disability Carers

Being a support worker in disability care often goes beyond what the job description says. Some days, you’re a mentor. Other days, you’re an advocate. Sometimes, you're the only person who understands a client’s needs on a difficult day.

This isn’t "just a job". It’s a responsibility. A privilege. At Soluna, we ensure that the people we place are not only aware of this but inspired by it.

Why Soluna? Because Care Deserves Better.

The disability care sector faces ongoing challenges: staff turnover, burnout, skills shortages. But at the root of it all is the need for the right match between carer and care environment.

At Soluna Recruitment, we focus on retention as much as recruitment. We check in after placement. We mediate when needed. We help build teams that last.

And because we specialise in this sector, we understand the regulatory frameworks (CQC standards), the funding models (personal budgets, direct payments), and the pressure providers are under. That’s why we work in partnership with organisations, not in opposition.

Let’s Work Together

If you’re a provider looking to strengthen your disability care team, or a support worker ready to find a role where you truly belong, we’d love to talk.

Care deserves more than compliance. It deserves compassion, consistency, and commitment.

So do you.

Soluna Recruitment: Where Care Comes First

In an industry where compassion and consistency make all the difference, Soluna Recruitment is raising the standard in care sector recruitment. With a name inspired by the harmony of the sun and moon, Soluna Recruitment brings balance to a sector often burdened by burnout, high turnover, and misaligned values.

If you're a care organisation tired of the traditional recruitment merry-go-round—or a care professional feeling undervalued and overlooked—Soluna is here to offer something different. Something better.




A New Approach to Care Sector Recruitment

Soluna Recruitment was founded on one simple but powerful belief: Care deserves it.

This guiding principle runs through everything they do. From the first conversation to the final placement, Soluna’s team takes the time to understand what truly matters—because in the world of care, it’s not just about filling roles, it’s about finding the right people for the right places.

For care providers, that means staff who align with your values, understand your mission, and want to stay long term—not just until something “better” comes along.

For candidates, it means more than just a job. It means joining a workplace that recognises your contribution, supports your growth, and values you as a human being, not just a CV.

Services for Employers

Whether you're running a care home, domiciliary care agency, supported living service or nursing facility, Soluna Recruitment offers a tailored solution designed to meet your unique staffing needs.

What they offer:

  • Permanent & Fixed-Term Contract Placements

  • Transparent & Ethical Recruitment Fees

  • Value-Based Candidate Matching

  • A Focus on Retention, Not Just Recruitment

Soluna works as a true partner—not a one-time supplier. They listen, they understand, and they stay with you to ensure the person they’ve placed is the right fit for your environment and team dynamic.

Services for Candidates

Tired of being placed in roles that don’t suit your skills, preferences, or lifestyle? You’re not alone. Many care workers feel disheartened by agencies that treat them as a number.

Soluna Recruitment is different.

They prioritise your wellbeing, preferences, and career goals. Their team takes the time to get to know you—what you’re passionate about, what environment brings out your best, and what kind of employer you’ll thrive with.

You can expect:

  • Honest feedback and transparent communication

  • Support through the application and onboarding process

  • Only being put forward for roles that genuinely match your values and skills

  • Ongoing care for your wellbeing after you’re placed

They’re not just filling vacancies—they’re helping build meaningful, lasting careers in the care sector.

Why Soluna?

In a crowded recruitment landscape, Soluna Recruitment stands out not with gimmicks, but with genuine care, human understanding, and a commitment to making care better—one placement at a time.

Their success is built on relationships, not numbers. And their results speak for themselves: happier employers, more fulfilled carers, and stronger, more stable teams across the care sector.

So, whether you're an employer looking to transform your staffing approach or a care professional ready for a fresh start—you’re in the right place.
