  • Offer companionship and social support, engaging with your client's hobbies and getting to know them.
  • Support with personal care tasks such as showering, washing hair, and getting changed.
  • Taking clients out to places of their choice e.g. the local shops or a café.
  • Ensure transparent communication with clients and loved ones, offering first-rate care and comfort.
  • Write accurate daily notes, keeping up strong communication with the office.
  • Administer medication and record appropriately.

Requirements:

  • Experience is not required; we offer comprehensive in-house training. However, any previous care experience either professional or personal is an advantage.
  • You must have a full driver's licence and dependable transportation for various duties.
  • You must be reliable and punctual to ensure we can continue to provide an excellent service to our clients.
