About Inna Care

Inna Care is a high-quality homecare provider supporting adults to live safely and independently in their own homes. We work with local councils, the NHS and private clients, delivering person-centred care across Havering and Essex.

Our motto is simple: “Your wellbeing is our priority. Healing belongs at Home.”

Due to growth in Essex, we are now looking for compassionate Home Carers to join our friendly team.
 

The Role

As a Home Carer, you will visit clients in their own homes and support them with day-to-day tasks so they can stay independent, safe and comfortable. You’ll be a familiar, friendly face and a real source of reassurance for clients and their families.

This is a community-based role, so you will be travelling between calls within your local area.

What You’ll Do

• Provide personal care (washing, dressing, toileting) with dignity and respect

• Assist with mobility, safe transfers and use of equipment (e.g. hoists, frames, stairlifts – full training given)

• Prompt and assist with medication in line with care plans

• Prepare meals, snacks and drinks and support with eating and drinking

• Support with light domestic tasks such as laundry, tidying and cleaning

• Offer companionship – chatting, listening, providing emotional support

• Accompany clients to appointments or community activities where required

• Record clear, accurate notes after each visit using our care system
   

  About You

  You don’t need previous professional care experience – full training is provided – but you do need the right values.

  We are looking for people who:

• Are kind, patient and genuinely care about others

• Treat every person with dignity, respect and compassion

• A full UK driving licence and access to a car is highly desirable for this role as you will be visiting clients in their homes across Essex.

• Are reliable, punctual and take pride in doing a good job

• Can follow care plans and instructions carefully

• Have good communication skills and a professional manner

• Are comfortable working alone in the community and as part of a wider team

  What We Offer

• Competitive pay – from £13.00 per hour plus paid mileage between calls

• Paid induction and ongoing training (including care certificates and specialist courses)

• Support from an experienced and approachable office and supervisory team

• Regular work with a consistent group of clients in your local area

• Opportunities to progress into senior carer, supervisor or office-based roles

• A friendly, inclusive working environment where your wellbeing matters too

  Requirements

• Right to work in the UK

• Willingness to undertake an enhanced DBS check

• Ability to work some weekends and/or evenings on a rota basis
