“Joining The Good Care Group was a game changer for me, not just because it provided me with a better quality of life, but also because it gave me the chance to grow personally and become the best carer I could be.” — Live-in Carer review

What does a live-in carer do?

As a live-in care assistant, you’ll follow a personalised care plan that enables clients to stay in their own homes. You’ll typically work an average of 8–10 hours per day, with daily rates based on hours worked and your experience. You’ll stay with your client during your chosen rota pattern, caring for one person (or sometimes a couple); supporting with daily activities, personal care, condition management, and household tasks.

Here, we value your skills, respect your choices, and are committed to supporting you. Together, we’re improving the lives of those in your local area, one meaningful step at a time, by delivering outstanding care across England. At The Good Care Group, we believe there’s nowhere better for those who want to make a real difference.

We’re committed to diversity and inclusivity, believing it drives excellence and reflects the communities we serve. We’ve proudly launched our Neurodiversity and LGBTQ+ steering groups to further promote inclusivity and welcome applications from all backgrounds and experiences.

Please note that any successful applicants for this role will be required to complete an Enhanced DBS and PVG check for working with adults. It is a criminal offence for individuals barred from working in Regulated Activity (under the Safeguarding and Vulnerable Groups Act 2006) to apply for roles that require them to work unsupervised with that particular group.
