Job Summary

Date posted: 25 February 2025

Care is about the joy of giving, but it's only joyful if it is unrushed and relationship-led. That is why at Home Instead, the UK's #1 rated home care brand, we provide visits that are a minimum of one hour to enable our community of Care Professionals to build friendly but professional relationships with our clients. We’re proud to support our clients at home to promote their independence and dignity in later life.

Our growing team has recently been awarded ‘Top 20 Rated Home Care Provider in South West England’ by homecare.co.uk, the leading home care review website.

Our Care Professionals are reliable and responsible to enable them to build trust with their clients. They are thoughtful and compassionate to treat others with dignity and respect. Importantly, they are able to share their heart and be themselves.

To help clients to remain happy, healthy and thriving in their own homes, your responsibilities may include:

  • Companionship and wellbeing support.
  • Aid with everyday tasks from cooking a meal to light housework.
  • Help to access their community by accompanying them to the shops or appointments.
  • Assistance with personal care and medication support.

You don't need any specific qualifications or experience to become a Care Professional with Home Instead, we'll support you to learn all you need! 

Must have a means of transport as clients are predominately cared for in their own homes, or would like you to accompany them on appointments or outings and can live in remote areas.

Skills / Qualifications:

  • Means of transport
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Compassionate and caring nature
  • Reliability and good time keeping
