• Preparing meals and encouraging hydration

• Light household tasks related to the client’s care

Essential Requirements • Previous care experience, ideally supporting mobility needs

• Knowledge of safe moving and handling procedures

• Legal right to work in the UK

• Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one)

• Two professional references

• Professional, respectful approach with strong communication skills

Due to the nature of personal care involved, this role is open to female applicants only in accordance with Schedule 9, Paragraph 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
