Responsibilities include personal care, clinical interventions, and supporting participation in activities that enhance quality of life. Evening and night shifts may involve bedtime routines, reassurance, and companionship while remaining attentive to the client’s needs throughout the night.

We are looking for caring, reliable, and motivated individuals who are passionate about supporting adults to live safely, independently, and with dignity.

Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.

“This isn't just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”

Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
Clear communication skills
Pet friendly – a dog within the property
