We are currently supporting a fun, affectionate, and cheeky man in his forties who lives at home with his family. He has a great sense of humour and enjoys building positive relationships with his care team.

He enjoys:

  • Listening to music
  • Drawing
  • Spending time with his mum, especially watching soaps together
  • The occasional takeaway and light-hearted banter

In this role, you will:

  • Support daily routines and provide personal care, including medication administration

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver high-quality, person-centred care
  • Support personal care with dignity and respect
  • Assist with moving and handling
  • Support daily routines within a 2:1 care package
  • Monitor wellbeing and respond appropriately to changing care needs and behaviours that may challenge

What We’re Looking For

  • Minimum of 3 months’ care experience
  • Confidence in medication administration, personal care, and moving and handling
  • Strong communication skills
  • A compassionate, patient, and reliable approach

What We Offer

  • Competitive hourly rates, with enhanced pay for nights and weekends
  • Consistent, pre-planned rotas for better work-life balance
  • A reward & recognition programme
  • 24/7 support from our dedicated management team
  • Opportunities for career progression within a national, values-led organisation Our funded training (including clinical skills) is provided free of charge; however, attendance is unpaid.

    Additional Information
