Live In Care Professional

About the Role

We are looking for a compassionate, patient and reliable Live-In Care Professional to provide dedicated support and companionship to an individual living in Benfleet.

This is an important role for someone who genuinely enjoys helping others and understands the value of providing respectful, person-centred care. The successful candidate will be approachable, attentive and able to build a trusting and positive relationship with the individual they support.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide compassionate, respectful and person-centred support.
• Offer friendly companionship and engage in meaningful conversation.
• Be a patient, attentive listener and provide emotional reassurance when needed.
• Build and maintain a positive, trusting relationship.
• Support with day-to-day care needs while promoting dignity, choice, independence and wellbeing.
• Respect the individual's routines, preferences and personal space.
• Maintain a safe, comfortable and supportive home environment.
• Work cooperatively with other care professionals involved in the individual's support.

Additional Care Support

The role is supported by a second care professional who will attend four care calls each day to assist with hoisting and transfers.

Safe moving and handling is a key priority, and the Live-In Care Professional will be expected to work alongside the visiting care professional to ensure transfers and other moving-and-handling tasks are carried out safely and respectfully.

What We Are Looking For

If you are a kind, dependable and caring person who takes pride in supporting others and would enjoy providing companionship alongside day-to-day care, we would love to hear from you.
