Description
The role of Visiting Carer can give real satisfaction and fulfilment in a job well done.This active role supports clients who are relying on you to be able to be in the home they love.
It's a very responsible job, supporting a wide range of clients with professionalism, empathy and a smile.
Visiting people in their homes means that every day is different; you can be asked to help with anything from administering important medication to taking a client out to an appointment or simply providing companionship.
When people talk to their friends and loved ones about Good Oaks, they don't necessarily talk about our branding or systems, they talk about the empowering, supporting relationships they develop with our team of visiting carers.
The one-to-one nature of the role, and the absolutely vital work our Visiting Carers do means that there is a special bond between them and the client.
People in the Visiting Carer role need to be genuinely caring, flexible and patient.Being able to interact with and support a variety of different clients with different needs in a friendly and professional way are all essential qualities for Carers.
We pay for people new to the care sector to complete the Care Certificate as part of their comprehensive induction, so even those with no experience will feel confident when starting in this role.
Because our Visiting Carers travel from home to home, being able to drive and having access to a car is essential.
