We offer guaranteed minimum hours contracts and our pay for shifts worked includes travel and waiting time

Job Description

For our care team to truly get to know our clients' individualised care needs, we sit down and work with them and their families to figure out a plan to provide exceptional care. Meaning that every job can differ from client to client.

Typical daily tasks for part-time hours performed during a weekend care visit include the following:

  • Personal care includes hygiene, assistance with mobility, using the restroom, and getting ready for bed.

  • Domestic Tasks like light housework and assisting our client with food preparation and cooking.

  • Activities involving companionship

  • Taking a client to appointments, social outings and shopping.

  • We require a minimum visit of an hour with regular clients, but a couple of hours makes a true difference.

  • We do require that you have a valid UK Driving Licence.

A friendly individual working a couple of days per week in social care can make a massive difference to people.

Qualifications

Show us your heart and in turn we will show you the rest
