Live-In Care Assistant Medway - £721 PAYE

Are you looking for a great new opportunity where you can turn your love and passion for care into a fulfilling career? Are you flexible to work one, two or three weeks at a time and have a couple of weeks break? If so, a Live-In care role might be the perfect flexible option that works for you!

Here at Right at Home Medway, we are a local, award-winning, family-run business with an open-door policy that always seeks to promote from within. We know how busy most of our lives can be, that's why we uniquely offer our 'Live-in Care Assistants' some working arrangements tailored to your pre-existing availability. Given the nature of our Live-in roles, you will need some form of previous care experience, or be able to demonstrate that you already have the required transferable skills. In return, we invest a great deal of time and energy into finding applicants with the right values, and we train you to our required standards.

OK, but what do you need FROM me?

Our clients lead busy lives, and place a great deal of trust in us to take care of their loved ones. For these reasons and as you would expect, it is important to us that each member of our team is:

• Caring
• Reliable

Typical tasks include:

• Companionship (hobbies, trips out etc)
• Medication assistance
• Assisting clients living with Dementia
• Personal care (minimal assistance is all that is sometimes required)
• Meal preparation
• Respond to our Client's ad-hoc needs
• And much more..
