Community Care Assistant in Swansea

2 weeks ago


Swansea, United Kingdom Swansea Council Full time

Our Community Care Assistants provide care and support to help people achieve positive outcomes, live well, regain independence and/or remain independent in their own home and in their community.

Some of the people our care staff support experience feelings of isolation, and some will have physical and or emotional barriers to independence. Most people that we support require help with personal care. By supporting people in their own homes, our care staff help people to feel connected, regain skills for daily living, increase their confidence and physical abilities to improve/maintain their quality of life. Whether you have previously worked in care, cared for a loved one or are interested in a career in care, we will be delighted to hear from you.

You are warm, helpful, friendly, reliable, flexible, honest, trustworthy, a good listener and kind.

Could you support and care for people in their own homes to help them feel safe and independent?

Are you a good listener and able to develop good relationships with people so that you could identify changes in their health in order to keep them well?

Are you reliable and flexible and can help the service to support people at various times of the day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year?

Do you have a full driving license and access to your own vehicle to reach people who live across Swansea at their scheduled call times?

Could you help us to become the best home care service in Wales?

If this sounds like you, please consider this rewarding role and apply.
