Live-in Role

Live-in Care is a full-time 24/7 homecare solution. It allows a client to stay at home in familiar, relaxed surroundings, supported by a full-time Live-in Carer who undertakes all the duties detailed in an individually designed care plan.

Many Carers enjoy this one-to-one personal home care service as it allows them to concentrate on one person at a time. Unlike other Care environments, Live-in Carers have the time to build a relationship and maintain a high standard of care.

But whilst it is undoubtedly one of the most rewarding jobs you can have, it’s also demanding, challenging and comes with a huge amount of personal responsibility. That’s why we’re taking this opportunity to give you as good an understanding of the role as possible, so you can decide if you have what it takes to care, before we do.

Caring is a calling, not a job

It takes a special kind of person to be a Live-in Carer; it’s more than just being reliable or punctual, it’s deeper than that. And often you either have it, or you don’t. A good Carer is someone who truly cares about others and is not just earning a living. Discover if you havewhat it takes to care. If you still think you’ve got what it takes then take a look at the person specification and job description to see if you could work as a Helping Hands Carer. Then we suggest you meet our Carers and hear their perspective on the role. Then read some case studies and understand what being a carer involves. At Helping Hands Homecare we have real diversity of clients. Learn how we provide Live-in Care for individuals both young and old, caring for more than 45 different conditions.

This is a special job, and it needs special people to do it. Make sure you know what’s involved before you contact us.
