Job Description

Care good enough for your own family

We’re looking for people with the personality and passion to build great relationships with our clients in Newport, Calbourne and surrounding area’s.

Our clients trust us. They will rely on you to listen carefully to what they need, take an interest in them and deliver excellent care. If you enjoy interacting with older individuals and want to pursue an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others, CAREGiving might be the career for you.

The most important part of a CAREGiving role with Home Instead is offering companionship based care and support - including helping someone out of bed, having a wash or putting on their socks. Each of our CAREGivers is matched to a client based on mutual interests and hobbies to encourage a strong relationship that is able to develop.

We believe you need this understanding and bond to be able to care for someone as if they were a member of your own family. Indeed, many of our CAREGivers do not have formal experience of working as a carer before they join our team, but have looked after a family member and want to make a difference to an older person’s life by using the experience they have gained.

Our service is companionship led and so, a considerable responsibility of a CAREGiver is to stimulate and encourage the client through a range of different activities that sustain or improve their quality of life. A CAREGiver’s responsibilities can also include accompanying clients to appointments and social events, light housekeeping, planning and preparing meals and helping with daily living routines.

We are looking for friendly, kind, compassionate people who like to spend time with older people and build a friendly but professional relationship. Don’t worry if you don’t have sector experience, we have extensive training and on-going development opportunities that will enable to you deliver our special brand of relationship-led care.

What we will give you:

  • Working hours to suit your needs around other commitments you may have.
  • A 4 day specialised free Learning Assessment & Orientation Program as part of our recruitment process on how to become a Home Instead CAREGiver
  • Investment in you as a person and any additional training or qualifications you may wish to carry out
  • An hourly wage reflective of the important role you do considerably higher than the minimum wage
  • Most importantly the chance to feel a part of the growing network of CAREGivers that really do care

Qualifications

Whilst we don’t like to put barriers up before you have even applied, it is essential that you have a full driving licence and use of a reliable car, as our clients are predominately cared for in their own home and some of them live in quite rural areas. You may also be required to take the client shopping or accompany them to appointments.

You will need to have excellent written and verbal English.

This role is subject to a satisfactory DBS enhanced disclosure, and satisfactory references

Additional Information

You will be part of a team:

  • Which puts trust, dignity and compassion at the forefront of our care
  • You will develop and learn with some of the most highly skilled and professional Care Assistants in the sector
  • You will feel part of a team and meet other like-minded CAREGivers
  • You will be valued by your clients and appreciated by your employer
  • You will be working for an Award-Winning Home Care Group

In return we can offer you:

  • Excellent rates of pay starting at £9.50 per hour
  • Weekend and bank holiday enhancements £19 per hour on Christmas Day and Boxing Day!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
