Job description

Paragon Home Healthcare - Live-in Carer Opportunity

Paragon Home Healthcare is seeking a lively and cheerful Live-in Carer to support a lovely lady with a spinal cord injury who is partially paralyzed.

The client resides independently in a well-equipped, adapted home in the Aylesbury HP19 area. She is supported by two live-in carers working collaboratively to provide consistent care while ensuring each carer has adequate rest and support.

This role is ideal for someone who doesn’t mind traveling, as the client visits her family overseas once a year and will need the carer to accompany her. Additionally, the carer will assist with driving the client to local appointments, shopping, and outings.

This opportunity is perfect for someone who values both care and companionship in a fulfilling role.

As a Carer (sometimes referred to as a Personal Assistant), your duties will include assisting the client with daily care, activities of daily living, and mobility needs. Specific responsibilities will be outlined in the care plan and managed via our electronic visit system. Tasks include personal care, spinal injury toileting, mobility support, meal preparation, and more. Comprehensive training and support are provided to ensure you can deliver quality care.

Responsibilities

• Observe and record the client's health status.
• Assist with activities of daily living.
• Ensure the client's safety.
• Maintain client confidentiality.
• Notify clients of changes in medications.
• Arrange transportation for appointments.

Requirements to Work with Us

• Complete our online application form.
• Right to work in the UK.
• Enhanced DBS check or online sign-up.
