Description

Are you a naturally caring person? Do you want to get involved and help your community when it needs you most?
Loneliness and isolation is a huge issue among our elderly community.

According to Age UK, half a million older people go at least 5 days a week without speaking to anyone at all.


As a Caregiver for Right at Home Bedford you can help support the vulnerable in their own homes and make a difference at a time when it has never counted so much.


The Role
Our Caregivers spend time with each of our elderly private clients who live in their own homes. Duties differ from visit to visit.

Whilst some clients require varying levels of Personal Care (including washing, dressing and personal hygiene), many just need a little help getting their meals prepared or keeping on top of basic housework, gardening or going to the shops.


What's In It For You?
A competitive salary up to £12.50
PLUS:holiday pay
, paid mileage, realistic travel time between clients and company pension contributions. We also offer generous retention bonuses and referral bonuses.


Be part of a team that look out for each other, have their suggestions listened to and finally find job satisfaction that cannot be matched elsewhere.


Hours of work


We have a number of clients who need support at all times of the day which allows your job to fit around your home life.

We are currently looking for those looking to work between the hours of 6pm-9pm in the evenings plus alternate weekends.

The role is part-time so shifts can be worked from anything of 1 to 7 evenings a week (together with a weekend)
