Job Description

Bluebird Care started as a small family business in 2004, and today we are proud to be one of the largest and best providers of home care services across the UK. But what makes us different?

Here at Bluebird Care, we’re committed to keeping people in the comfort of their own home. This means much more than taking care of everyday tasks around our customers’ homes – we encourage our Live-In Carers to support our customers to live a full and rewarding life that includes social activity, meaningful occupation and engagement with friends, family and community. Our office team will support you to work with your customer and their support network to create a lifestyle that will keep everyone involved in the care package healthy, happy and engaged.

We aim to deliver the best possible Live-In Care and are happy to offer a salary package which will attract the very best Live-In Carers to our beautiful county.

Our Live-In Care service is inspected by the Care Quality Commission, and has been rated as “Overall Outstanding” since 2017.

Your Roles and Responsibilities as a Live-in Care Assistant

As a Live-In Care Assistant, you will be living with one of our customers or a couple to provide the very best care. You are there to be a companion, but also to help them remain independent in their own home and cherish all the memories they’ve made there.

Your day-to-day activities might include:

· Providing personal care

· Administering or supporting with medication

· Assisting with moving and handling, using equipment where required

· Promoting customer health and well-being, enabling them to live their life to the full.

· Household chores

· Meal preparation

· Shopping

· Organising or supporting with social outings and other activities

· Providing companionship and emotional support

Your Experience and Suitability for the Live-in Care Assistant Role

Previous experience is a bonus but not a requirement. Live-in Care Assistants are matched to our customers to ensure our customers and you get along so the most important thing to us is that you are naturally compassionate, caring and patient. We want a team who genuinely cares for each of our customers as if they were their own family.

Because we care about you, we offer:

· Excellent rates of pay - £800 to £1085 per week based upon customer dependency levels

· Support from the office team including regular supervisions, and in-field support - we're always at the end of the phone!

· Paid holiday – up to 28 days per year, which can be paid in your breaks between shifts

· Health insurance scheme, including free Chiropractic treatments and Sports Massage

· Hand over with existing Live-in Carers

· Beautiful locations across Gloucestershire

· Flexible working patterns

But not only that, we take care of our team throughout the year, whether it's your birthday, Christmas, awards or simply because it’s a Thursday. We’re a family and we’re here to look after you today, tomorrow and every other day after that.
