Honestly, it is a mix. Some visits are personal care, helping someone wash, dress and get their day started. Some are practical, a meal made and a bit of tidying. Some are simply company, and those matter more than people expect.
You will be trusted with a lot. Medication, someone's dignity, spotting when they are not quite right and saying so. That responsibility is real and we train and support you for it, with supervision, spot checks and a nursing team behind you.
It can be hard work, and there are days that are sad. Most carers who stay tell us the same thing, which is that being the person someone is genuinely pleased to see is worth more than any job they have had before.
We recruit for attitude. If you are reliable, kind and prepared to learn, we can teach you the rest.
