Radfield Home Care Shrewsbury & Oswestry are looking for Live in Care Professionals who are passionate about caring for people in their community.

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 *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

• Offering our clients companionship
  
  

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

Previous experience in Live In Care is required for this position. 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 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)
• A weekly £50 food allowance
• 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
