Domiciliary Care Assistant
With their own front door, clients can come and go as they please, socialise with neighbours in the communal areas or enjoy their own company in privacy. Within each housing scheme our care teams are on hand round the clock to support our clients with daily tasks and activities; this is known as domiciliary care.
Our Domiciliary Care Assistants make a real difference to our clients every day; whether it’s supporting them with their
daily routines or personal care, providing companionship or supporting with light household duties, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring they are leading happy and fulfilled lives.

You’ll work alongside other team members who are passionate about providing care, warmth and kindness to all those who live and work in our schemes. If you've worked in retail, hospitality or within the warehouse industry then this could be suitable for you.
