Job Description
At Home Instead, we do things differently. We believe care should never be rushed, and relationships should be at the heart of everything we do. That’s why our visits are always at least one hour long, giving you the time to provide truly personal, quality care.
Our Care Assistant's are carefully matched with clients and introduced in advance, ensuring familiarity, trust, and continuity. At one of our branches, one of our team members had supported the same client for over 10 years - something we’re incredibly proud of!

- £12.85 per hour during the week and £13.50 per hour on a weekend

- Mileage and travel time between clients paid to you
- Free Blue Light Card for national discounts
