Live in Care Professional

Pay: £900-£1100 (+ £50 living allowance/expense) per week.

Location: Shrewsbury, Shropshire

We are unfortunately unable to sponsor Tier 2 visas for overseas applicants. You must already have the Right to Work in the United Kingdom.

Radfield Home Care Shrewsbury & Oswestry are looking for Live in Care Professionals who are passionate about caring for people in their community. Importantly, in this very specialised, but highly rewarding role, you will enable our clients to continue living in their own homes, as an alternative to a residential care home.

Your Roles & Responsibilities as a Live in Care Professional:

As a Live in Care Professional, you will be living with one of our clients for either 1 week or 2 weeks at a time, you may even be supporting a couple in their home – and you’ll be there to provide excellent care for extended periods of time. You are there to be a companion and to assist your client day to day, but also to help them remain independent in their own home

Responsibilities may include;

Assisting with administration of medication
Manual handling, using equipment where required,
Promoting health and well-being with clients, enabling them to live their life to their full potential
Household tasks & cleaning
Providing personal care
Meal preparation
Shopping
Assisting taking clients to social events
Offering our clients companionship

Your Experience and Suitability for the Live in Care Professional Role:

Whilst previous experience is helpful, it is not a requirement. You will be introduced to your client over a period of time to acclimatise and to get to know one another. Live in care is a big commitment, and different to other types of employment, in that you would be spending 1 week to 2 weeks at a time with a client, with the same amount of time off.

Our Live in Care Professionals benefit from:

Competitive rates of £900 - £1100 per week (dependent on complexity of care needs)
28 days holiday
Access to Blue Light Card & Blue Light Tickets
Ongoing training and support
Regular, scheduled daily and weekly breaks, where you can come and go from a clients home
A defined schedule of time working vs. downtime during each day
