Are you a compassionate and reliable individual looking to make a meaningful difference in someone’s life — while enjoying the stability of live-in work?
At Ultima Care & Nursing, we deliver person-centred, high-quality live-in care that enables people to remain safely and comfortably in their own homes. We are now expanding our live-in care team and are looking for dedicated carers who are ready to support clients across Kent and beyond.
What We Offer:
- 
    
Competitive weekly pay (dependent on experience & client complexity)
 - 
    
Travel contribution to and from placements
 - 
    
Free accommodation and meals while on placement
 - 
    
Ongoing paid training, including Care Certificate and further qualifications
 - 
    
Free uniform & Blue Light Card
 - 
    
24/7 support from our experienced office team and clinical leads
 - 
    
Flexible rota options: long-term placements, 2-week on/off rotations and more
 
About You:
- 
    
You have a genuine passion for supporting others
 - 
    
You're reliable, adaptable, and confident working alone
 - 
    
You hold the right to work in the UK
 - 
    
Ideally, you have previous care experience, especially in live-in settings (but we welcome fast learners too!)
 - 
    
A full UK driving licence is a bonus but not essential
 
Your Role:
You’ll live alongside your client, supporting them with:
- 
    
Personal care and medication assistance
 - 
    
Meal preparation and household tasks
 - 
    
Companionship and emotional support
 - 
    
Monitoring wellbeing and reporting any concerns
 - 
    
Enabling independence and choice wherever possible
 
Each client is different — we match you carefully based on your experience and personality to ensure the right fit.
