Care Assistant | Real Time With Real People | No Experience, Full Training
£12.71 per hourReady for a fresh start?
Sometimes life nudges you to ask: what’s next for me?
Maybe you’re semi-retired or an ex-nurse who misses building real relationships. Maybe your weeks need a new purpose. Maybe you’re starting your care career and want to do it properly, with people who get it.
At Home Instead North Lakes, you’ll have real, unhurried time with real people where the care we deliver is rated Outstanding by the CQC . One-hour visits built around what matters to them, with clients matched to you through shared interests. Full hour with your client. Travel time and mileage paid on top. That hour is theirs. No corners cut.
And you’ll be in good company. Thank you to everyone who took part in our last PEAQ survey: 98% of the Care Professionals in our South Lakes team told us they are proud to work for Home Instead , and 100% would recommend our services.
What you bring as a person matters more than what’s on your CV.
Time to care, and hours to fit your life
Every day is different, and every day means something. You might help someone with their morning routine, share a proper cuppa and a catch-up, prepare a meal, support with medication, or enjoy a gentle walk together. Every visit is shaped around the person, their routines and what makes them feel most like themselves.
These aren’t small things to the people you visit. They are everything. And you’re paid for every minute. No wonder 98% of our South Lakes Care Professionals feel confident in their ability to meet their clients’ needs.
