Company Description At Home Instead, we take great pride in providing person-centred care that is truly tailored to each of our clients. We believe in quality over quantity, which is why we offer a minimum visit time of one hour — giving our Care Assistants the time to build genuine relationships and deliver exceptional support. We are looking for Care Assistants who are full of empathy, kindness, and compassion — people who can bring comfort, companionship, and happiness into the lives of clients who live independently in their own homes but need a little extra support to remain safe and well. Job Description Being a Care Assistant is a highly rewarding career where no two days are ever the same. With a minimum of one-hour visits and careful client matching, you’ll have the time to provide high-quality, person-centred support that truly makes a difference. Key Duties Include: Companionship: Providing meaningful social interaction and emotional support, helping clients enjoy regular conversation, shared activities, and a sense of connection. Everyday Support: Assisting with day-to-day tasks such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, and maintaining a comfortable, safe home environment. Personal Care: Supporting clients with essential routines such as bathing, showering, oral hygiene, dressing, and preparing for bed — always encouraging and promoting independence wherever possible. . Qualifications We welcome Care Assistants with previous experience as well as those looking for a completely new direction in their career. Full training and ongoing support are provided to help you develop the skills and confidence needed to deliver exceptional person-centred care. Additional Information We are currently looking for Care Assistants to work evening shifts from 5:00pm to 9:45pm on weeknights and weekends.
