If you're passionate and caring and looking for a rewarding job that comes with excellent training and great opportunities for personal development, join Bespoke Home Care as an Independence Support Worker and make a real difference.

Being an Independence Support Worker at Bespoke Home Care
Care Assistants at Bespoke Home Care come from all walks of life. Some have worked in factories, supermarkets or schools. Some are returning to work after a break. Many have no, or minimal, experience but are keen to explore a career in care, while many already have invaluable experience. What they all have in common is the right values. They’re adaptable, friendly, polite and caring. They enjoy working as a team with people from different cultures and backgrounds. They consider it a privilege to be trusted to look after others. Do you share their values? Then we could have just the role for you.

What you’ll be doing
Being a Care Assistant doesn’t just mean helping residents to remain as active and independent as possible while respecting their rights of choice, privacy and dignity. It means having fun and laughing with them and using your skills to help them deal with daily difficulties like personal care and meal times. It also means working as a team to identify their unique goals and implement personalised care plans. It also means working flexibly to help them explore new interests, engage in physical exercise and activities, and ensure they enjoy themselves in a stimulating and homely environment. Put simply, it means making a difference. A real difference.

What you’ll need
Experience in caring for others would be helpful, not necessarily in a paid role – you may have looked after an elderly relative or friend. More important, though, is your kind-hearted nature, belief in teamwork and ability to use your initiative and imagination, follow instructions and prioritise a busy workload. You’ll be comfortable talking to and working with people from different professions, and you’re great at keeping records, too. Above all, you have a natural ability to help make the lives of others more fulfilling and want to work in an environment where the work can be hard, but also fun and rewarding.
