Never work a day in your life if you love the job you do!!

We recently had a carer start working with us full time and she said I can't believe I get paid to visit lovely people and chat to them!!

With all of our calls the companionship is so important. Some clients needs support with personal care, some need meals preparing for them, some need taking to appointments, each call is so different but all calls are so rewarding.

The last two carers who joined Able Living Care, came from very different career paths. They have done some training, shadowed experienced carers and are now out in the community making a difference to peoples lives.

We are looking for people to work at the weekends, but if you would like to do evenings too or anything else we are very flexible. We look forward to hearing from you and I am sure you would love to hear about our great rates of pay and work values of Dignity and Respect, Learning and Reflection, Working Together, Commitment to quality care and support.

We care for our clients from 7:30 in the morning until 10:30 in the evening 7 days a week.
