Home Care Work | Become a Home Carer
Our Home Carers help clients to remain living independently within their own homes. The tasks we assist them with range from home help and companionship to personal care. Our care visits vary in length from 30 minutes upwards, although most are 30 minutes to an hour long. We assist many of our clients at multiple times during the day. Therefore a typical day at work for us involves:
- Morning (from 7am) - Assist clients to get up and out of bed, washed and dressed, prepare breakfast, prompt or administer medication. Assistance with toileting may also be required for some clients.
- Lunch - Prepare a hot meal and drink. Prompt or administer medication, provide companionship and maybe assist with some household tasks.
- Tea Time - Make a hot drink and a light snack, prompt or administer medication. Perhaps take the client on an outing, shopping or to an appointment.
- Evening (up to 10pm) - Prepare a meal or light snack and drink, prompt or administer medication and assist the client to get ready for bed.
Because of the times of our care calls, we require Home Carers who are flexible and able to work mornings and/or evenings as well as some weekend work. Home Carers must also have a valid driving licence and their own car with a valid MOT and correct insurance.
If you have compassion, empathy and common sense and believe you have the right attitude and flexibility to help others...
