The Role
About us:
Caremark (Charnwood) is a specialist provider of domiciliary home care for people living in the Charnwood area of Leicestershire. We provide care and support to people living in Loughborough, Shepshed, Sileby, Quorn, Barrow upon Soar, Rothley and Mountsorrel.
From our office close to the centre of Loughborough, we offer support to anyone who requires care and support within their own home. We have a number of privately-funded clients who wish to remain in their own homes and retain their independence, rather than having to move into residential care.
All of our Care and Support Workers and Office Staff are thoroughly trained and DBS checked before they start work for Caremark (Charnwood), and all staff are provided with continued support.
Who we support:
Caremark (Charnwood) offers care and support to adults who require care but wish to continue living at home safely and comfortably. We provide care for a range of groups, including the elderly, people with learning disabilities and/or mental health problems, and those with physical disabilities. We provide support with personal care, medication, food preparation, social inclusion, accessing the community, health appointments, domestic tasks, finances and much more.
You will find us to be a friendly and supportive organisation. We are keen to recruit caring, motivated individuals who genuinely wish to make a difference to the lives of the vulnerable adults that we look after.
So, are you looking to becoming a carer or are you an experienced carer looking for stability with guaranteed hours?
