Are you a caring person? Then a career in Social Care is calling you!

Do you like making people feel good, always seem to be there when life gets tough, and do you do all of that with a smile on your face? Then we're the company for you.

We'd love to invite you to join our excellent team of Professional Careers in your local community. It's a secure, friendly, and enjoyable working environment. You'll get full training, and unlike many careers, you can progress whether you are part-time or full-time.

As a family-made and run business, we understand that flexibility is key! Our team of trained administration professionals will keep your needs in mind.

What's it like being a Carer with us?

Life gets more challenging as we get older, so our Carers are here to provide a helping hand, by visiting people in their own homes, from just a 30-minute call to several visits a day. You might be assisting with fluids and nutrition, shopping, personal care, or just a cup of tea!

Our Carers are friends, allies, and lifelines to people who really need them, sometimes in the final chapters of their lives. There can be sad moments, but here's the thing: you'll have helped. And if our existing carers are to be believed, you'll get a lot out of these relationships too.

Very few jobs have such an impact on people's lives, and being the caring person you are, you're ideally cut out to join us.

We are a Team!

CareYourWay Chester is not just about serving the community; it's about being a team. You'll be working with people like you, who'll be there through the good times and the challenging times.

On joining us, you'll train for the industry-recognised Care Certificate, and you'll shadow experienced colleagues while you learn the ropes. Then there are our branch teams and care

specialists you can call on with any concerns. Additionally, our technology lets you concentrate on care, instead of admin bringing your contact time with your valuable clients longer.

With us, you’ll never feel alone, with our 24/7 on-call system, HR meetings, staff meetings, and regular care plan reviews assuring you that you’re doing things right!

Real-Time Care Tracking

Through our commitment to bringing technology and care together, we are proud to say all our care notes are electronic, including medication, patch notes, and general care notes. If you’re not tech-savvy, don’t worry! Our qualified training team will be there every step of the way to ensure you have full training and feel comfortable before being let loose!

We will applaud your hard work with competitive pay rates and staff benefits. We would like to invite you to join our mission to revolutionise the care sector, where there are genuine promotion prospects to team leader, care specialist, or even move into management.
