Adult Care Worker
ACCESS YOUR CARE DOES NOT OFFER UK VISA SPONSORSHIP
When looking for a role in domiciliary social care, a lot of people ask themselves the same questions:
– Am I going to be paid travel time between clients?
– Will I be given fair mileage reimbursement?
– Am I going to get guaranteed hours?
– Will this role work around my life?
– Are the benefits of the role good?
Access Your Care can honestly answer yes to all of these questions. As an established lead provider of homecare for North Somerset Council, we work directly with the council to ensure that everyone needing care in the area gets it.
Read on if this has sparked your interest.
We are growing our team of Adult Care Workers, and we’re looking for amazing individuals to join us in making the world a better place.
As an Adult Care Worker, you will be out in the community visiting clients in their own homes and providing the highest quality of care and support possible. Every client has their own needs, however some tasks that you will be supporting with include:
– Assisting with personal care.
– Administering medication.
– Nutrition and hydration support.
– Using specialist equipment and correct manual handling procedures to assist clients who are less mobile.
– Offering companionship, support and a friendly ear, giving clients social nourishment.
You don’t necessarily need previous experience for this role. We provide you with all of the training you need. If you are the sort of person who would go out of their way to help another person on the street then you have the right attitude, and that’s the most important thing.
In this role you will meet a range of different and interesting people from a range of backgrounds, all with their own stories and experiences. You will go home every day having learned something new and will also know that you have made a massive difference in the world that day.
