3 Evenings a Week - Home Care - £180 - £198 guaranteed

Work a fixed shift and earn a fixed amount of money supporting local elderly people.

What is a Guaranteed Shift?

Guaranteed shifts take away uncertainty around earnings usually present in Community Care due to unpaid time spent traveling between clients or gaps in the rota.

You are paid a set amount per shift regardless of how much time is spent assisting clients, driving, or on a break/gap. If you can commit to just 3 evenings per week you are guaranteed £180 a week plus petrol money, holiday pay and pension.

The Role

Our Care and Support Companions typically spend 1 hour visiting each of our private clients who range from their early 50's up to 102 years old and live in their own homes across Amersham, Wycombe, Beaconsfield, Chalfont, Holmer Green and surrounding areas.

Duties differ from visit to visit. Many clients just need a little help getting their meals prepared or keeping on top of basic housework, gardening or going to the shops. Whilst a few require varying levels of personal care or medication support. One task that will be ever-present is the ability to make a good cup of tea and have a friendly chat.

Available Shifts & Optional Overtime

We are looking for someone that can commit to 3 shifts per week, which typically run from 5.00 pm to 10.00 pm.

As we deliver care and support 7 days a week from 7 am to 10 pm there will be the opportunity to work additional hours on top of your evening shifts should you wish.

You may or may not have previously worked or volunteered in Community Care and Support. It really does not matter as we look to employ and train new team members based on their personal values rather than existing care experience.

We have learned that many of the following words describe people who excel and enjoy working as a Home Companion: Kind, Reliable, Friendly, Compassionate, Chatty, Flexible and Honest. You will need a full UK Driving Licence with access to a car.
