Are you looking for a career in care? Then we could be the place for you.
It’s a fulfilling job knowing that you are the eyes, ears and sometimes, legs of a client, making their daily life easier…. I recall caring for a client terrified of taking a shower. We built a great friendship and trust, encouraging him slowly of the benefits to his health. In the end it was a revelation to him. Now he asks daily when can he have another shower…. I keep a healthy balance between ‘care’ and my family life. I love dancing…. but only when no one is watching
We value the patience, commitment and special gift that our carers’ possess. A career in care is not for everyone but is hugely rewarding emotionally for both the providers and recipients of care. That’s why we pride ourselves on nurturing that special gift through support and continuous training at our Academy, flexible working hours, and a generous working package. If you believe you have the right personality to care and connect with the elderly, we would love to hear from you.

We manage our care packages through a team approach and, wherever possible, we provide a consistent service for each client. This allows a trusting relationship to be formed between clients and a small number of team members, meaning there is little impact on the client’s wellbeing during periods of staff training and holidays. This approach also provides regular work for a carer even when a customer is taken to hospital at very short notice.
A typical day in my role is getting up at 5.30am to be at my first client for 7am. Assisting with her morning routine including personal care and preparation of breakfast. Administering medication. Then on to my next clients until the last one of the round at 1pm. I prepare her some lunch, do some household chores and leave her sitting comfortable with drinks before I set off for home. Throughout the shift I have lovely chats with my clients and they fill me in with what’s going on in their lives and any worries or issues they have.
