  • Accompanying the client on walks, swimming trips, shopping, and social outings
  • Medication prompting and general wellbeing support
  • Encouraging confidence and meaningful daily activities

This role is focused on building trust, companionship, and helping the client continue enjoying the activities she loves.

What We Offer

  • Competitive live-in pay
  • Paid holidays
  • Ongoing support from a friendly office team
  • Regular scheduled rotation (2 weeks on / 2 weeks off)
  • A rewarding role with meaningful one-to-one care
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities

What We’re Looking For

  • Previous experience in care, live-in care, dementia care or support work
  • A calm, patient and compassionate approach
  • Confidence supporting someone living with Alzheimer’s
  • Full UK driving licence with access to a car
  • Clean driving licence preferred
  • Good communication skills and reliability
  • Right to work in the UK
