Full job descriptionDomiciliary Care Worker
Location: Sefton
Salary: £13.20 per hour, plus mileage payments
Vacancy Type: Part-time roles available
As a Care Worker, you will be a valued member of our domiciliary care team, providing person-centred support in clients’ own homes. You will bring a caring, friendly and compassionate approach to every visit. Comprehensive training and ongoing support will help you reach your full potential.

*Work flexibly on a rota, including some weekends.
*Work primarily on single care calls, while being willing to undertake occasional double care calls where the needs of the client or service require two care workers.
This is primarily a single-care role, and successful applicants will be expected to work independently during the majority of their scheduled calls.
However, there will be occasions where a double-care call is required, for example where a client’s care needs involve two care workers for safe moving and handling or other aspects of care. You will therefore be expected to work as part of a two-person care team when required.
