Care Assistant

At Home Instead Cannock we provide specialized home care for the elderly and supporting them and their families in Cannock and surrounding area since 2010 

Home Instead was founded on personal experience and these family values remain at the core of everything we do. 

We believe that care at home should be tailored, flexible and adaptable, and that everyone should be able to live happily, comfortable and independently at home for as long as possible

If you want to help your neighbours (we keep you in the Brewood & Codsall area) to remain in their own homes. Then look no further

Disillusioned with your current role in Adult Care?

If so, then come and join our fantastic team of Care Professionals at Home Instead Cannock. 

We are currently recruiting to meet the increase in demand for our services and have changed the way we work.

We recognise the need for greater flexibility in working hours and contract terms and we aim to be more agile in our methods. With this in mind, we will be working with each individual care professional to work out with them flexible working patterns and contractual terms that suit their availability and lifestyle.

We are now offering paid training, this kicks in after interview and assessment has been completed. The assessment is about ensuring you are fully aware of the duties you will be expected to perform and will help you recognise how we as your employer, value your services.

We are also offering our care professionals different types of employment contracts that will suit your personal individual circumstances, we are aware that one size really does not fit all.

We are offering exceptional training and career progression if you have experience and a chance to work in Adult Care if you are inexperienced.

Once trained and introduced to your clients we expect you to offer personal care (washing & dressing) home help duties (light housework & meal preparation) companionship care (taking clients out and about). 

We are keen to recruit and retain people with experience of social care and those who are inexperienced but are keen to join a fast growing industry.

If you are working for a company where you are not listened to, where you are forced to work until you drop, or to undertake visits where you really feel you are not supporting your client to the best of your ability, then call us and let's start talking.

We do not mind what you have done or where you have worked, we are interested in speaking to you whatever your previous experience. Our superb award winning training will give you all the skills we are seeking.

We do look for common sense, reliability and regularity in hours worked.
