Female Care Assistant

Support Independence. Build Confidence. Make a Real Impact.

Now recruiting: Female Reablement Care Assistants – East Hertfordshire & Surrounding Villages

We are looking for compassionate, reliable people to join our team as Female Reablement Care Assistants. This role is about much more than providing support — it's about helping people rebuild confidence, regain daily skills, and restore independence in their own homes.

What You'll Be Doing

As a Reablement Care Assistant, you'll provide essential support that truly changes lives, including:

Companionship – conversations, activities, outings

Medication Management – collecting prescriptions, reminders, safe administration

Nutrition & Mealtimes – preparing nutritious meals, considering dietary needs

Housekeeping – light cleaning, laundry, tidying

Mobility Assistance – transfers, walking support, use of aids

What You'll Need (Besides a Cape and Superpowers)

Hold onto your hats — ideally, you'll have at least 6 months of social care experience to join our merry band of care crusaders

But here's the truth: what matters most to us is your heart of gold and your ability to sprinkle kindness wherever you go. You'll need to be as resilient as a rubber band and as eager to learn as a curious kitten. Don't worry — we'll help you level up your skills and knowledge as part of our close-knit (and delightfully quirky) team.

While experience is a bonus, we're really looking for people who:

Have compassion oozing from every pore

Can communicate like a UN diplomat

Possess problem-solving powers that would impress Mother Teresa

Are committed to respectful, high-quality care that would make your gran proud

Have the right to work within the UK

A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle is essential (some clients live in rural areas and need heroes who can reach them).
