Company Description
Home Instead is the world’s leading provider of care and companionship services for older people. We match our Care Professionals to our clients based on mutual interests and hobbies to help build bonds of trust, enabling us to provide compassionate, relationship-led support from the heart. We are immensely proud of the innovative and holistic care we provide. We care for our colleagues as much as we care for our clients; we treat them like family.
Job Description
Working in care, every day is different. At Home Instead we care for our clients in their own homes. Our calls are a minimum of one hour which sets us aside from the other providers giving our CAREGivers time to build up trust and rapport and creating a lasting friendship.
Tasks may include helping someone with their morning and evening routines, preparing them healthy and delicious meals through the day, medication support or keeping their own homes safe and tidy.
Above all, you will be there to provide that essential companionship service which is at the heart of everything that we do.
In return you will work with a friendly local team that offer great rates of pay, paid holiday, award winning training, and staff discounts and other benefits.
You will have access to continued professional development to enable you to provide the highest standard of professional care.
Due to the nature of the role you must have access to reliable transport as you may be required to assist a client to an appointment or to enable them to continue with a hobby or interest.
