Job Description

Being a Live-In Carer is a special role for a special kind of person.

Living with your client, you will be on hand to support them to remain living in the comfort of their own home. The role is varied, rewarding and can include support with personal care, continence, using equipment to help with mobility, managing conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease or dementia and housekeeping. Most importantly, you will be providing companionship and taking the time to do the small things that can make all the difference.

Are you that special person?

With or without formal care experience, we would love to hear from you. Having experience always helps but we believe that a genuine desire to help others, commitment, honesty, reliability, a positive, friendly and flexible attitude and the willingness to go that ‘extra mile’ to make someone else’s day special is more important than formal experience.

What we offer:

What sets us apart is that you do not become simply another carer name on a scheduling system. As an employer, we genuinely consider our carers to be an important part of the Calida Care team and we enjoy taking the time to get to know you. We are here to support you, every step of the way and know that a friendly face and chat can make all the difference and we are always available by phone or email if you need us, or even if you just want to say hello.

Other benefits include:

• Free comprehensive training at our office in Basingstoke including medication, basic first aid and moving & handling
• Free accommodation while attending training
• Excellent rates of pay, from £595 per week
• Holiday pay added on top of your daily pay rate
• Workplace pension scheme
• UK travel allowance scheme
• 24/7 support
• Flexible work patterns – we work with you to ensure you have that important time off to be with family and friends and to suit family or study commitments
