Person-centred care that makes a real difference.

Would you enjoy flexible, fulfilling work where you can build meaningful relationships and truly understand the person you support?

About the Role
You will be working alongside an established team member to provide one-to-one support to a friendly, happy-go-lucky gentleman in his own home. He lives with his wife and brother-in-law and has a close, supportive family, including a son who lives nearby and visits regularly. The home also includes two much-loved, friendly female Chihuahuas. The client has well-managed schizophrenia, stable health conditions, and reduced mobility, and benefits from calm, reliable, person-centred support that promotes independence and comfort. His wife provides much of the day-to-day support, with family accompanying him when out. We are looking for someone respectful and personable, who can naturally fit into family life, anticipate what needs to be done, and maintain professional boundaries. This is a rewarding opportunity to provide consistent care in a warm, supportive home environment.

• Someone with strong communication skills and a genuine commitment to person-centred care.
What You’ll Get
