Full Job Description

Well, imagine popping by to help Mrs. Smith start her day. One moment you're assisting her out of bed and helping her choose an outfit, and the next, you're sharing a cuppa and a natter as she enjoys her breakfast. Later, you might be off to Mr. Jones' to make sure he's got his medication sorted and a hot meal on the table. Maybe a quick tidy-up, or a trip to the shops is on the cards as well.

But here's the special bit. You're not just a helper; you're a lifeline, a listener, and often, a good laugh! Our visits are never less than an hour, allowing plenty of time to provide quality care without feeling rushed. You ensure all of your clients are comfortable and safe to enable them to stay independent in their own homes.

Interested in training? Home Instead is a step above the rest. Our Nurse led training delivers many hours of training to our team each year. Its not just about ticking boxes; it's about elevating your skills and boosting your confidence to enable you to provide high quality care. We ensure you're supported at every stage and you can earn professional qualifications too!

And we're a team that likes to have fun too. We celebrate each other's achievements and have regular team meetings and coffee and chats. We even get out into the local community hosting Companionship Cafes, Dementia talks and gift giving schemes!

The training has cemented my skill set and passion for providing high quality care." - Julie, Care Professional.
