Care Assistant

What You'll Be Doing As a Care Professional, you'll help clients live safely, comfortably, and independently in their own homes. You'll follow personalised care plans designed to promote dignity, wellbeing, and independence. Your responsibilities will include:

• Medication support
• Meal preparation and assistance
• Shopping and practical daily tasks
• Light housekeeping (laundry, cleaning, tidying)

• Genuine compassion and respect for others
• Reliability and a caring nature
• Willingness to learn new skills
• Good communication and teamwork
• The right to work in the UK (Please note: As an employer, we are unfortunately unable to offer Visa sponsorship).
