No previous care assistant experience is needed, just your natural caring qualities. We will support you with full training, shadow shifts and introductions to all your new clients.

Having a full, UK driver's licence and your own car is essential due to some tasks that may be involved like shopping trips, taking to appointments, and travelling between client visits within a 15 minute window.
