Domiciliary Care Worker

We are looking for a Domiciliary Care Worker to join our team of care workers in and around Dover. We have been awarded top in Kent for quality home care and we're looking for somebody who can work during the hours of 4pm to 9pm.

We visit our elderly clients in their homes and offer companionship, personal care and anything else they need to live a happy and independent life. Daily activities might include medication, personal care, cleaning, cooking, shopping, offering choices, social inclusion and social support.

Many people have care experience, without them realising some examples are:- supporting the elderly, providing regular support/help to buying the shopping for a neighbour who is struggling to go out.

We don't need you to have previous professional care experience as we offer comprehensive training built from our own mix of experience in the Health and Social Care sector.

If you are experienced and interested in joining Inchwater Home Care, then you might find us a little different. We offer you the time to provide excellent support and offer continuity of care with your own specific clients. We minimise travelling and wait times and we offer a very competitive mileage allowance. We want you to enable the best possible care for our clients.

We are currently looking for part time staff to work across Dover villages and surrounding areas for our inspiring clients. Should you be successful, you will be matched to clients that click with you and your availability and you will be working between the hours of 4pm until 9pm.
