This is not a high-pressure care role – rather, it’s about being a friendly and supportive presence. You’ll assist with light personal care and hygiene, offer gentle prompts for medication, and encourage healthy habits like eating, drinking, and light at-home exercise. Most importantly, you’ll provide friendly company and conversation – the kind of connection that can brighten someone’s entire day.

If you’re patient, warm-hearted, and enjoy helping others in a meaningful but manageable way, we’d love to hear from you.

  • Medication prompting/administering
  • Personal grooming
  • Housekeeping

  • Hygienic, tidy and well organised
  • Fit and healthy to undertake the required duties
  • Patient and possess excellent interpersonal skills
  • Honest and cheerful
  • Creative
  • Able to speak and read English to a reasonable standard
  • Able to always work to high standards of health & safety
