Job description

๐ŸŒŸ Support Independence. Build Confidence. Make a Real Impact. ๐ŸŒŸ

Now recruiting: Reablement Care Assistants โ€“ East Hertfordshire & Surrounding Villages

We are looking for compassionate, reliable people to join our team as Reablement Care Assistants. This role is about much more than providing support โ€” itโ€™s about helping people rebuild confidence, regain daily skills, and restore independence in their own homes.

Every visit makes a difference: from enabling someone to cook a meal again, to supporting them back on their feet after hospital discharge. If you want to see the direct results of your care and celebrate small but powerful milestones with clients, this role is for you.

Including (but not limited to):

  • Bishopโ€™s Stortford

We believe great work deserves great pay.

  • Evening: 14:00 โ€“ 22:00/23:00

๐Ÿš— Requirements

  • Full UK driving licence
  • Access to a vehicle (essential for travel between clients)

๐Ÿ’™ What Youโ€™ll Be Doing

As a Reablement Care Assistant, youโ€™ll provide essential support that truly changes lives, including:

๐Ÿค Companionship โ€“ conversations, activities, outings
๐Ÿ’Š Medication Management โ€“ collecting prescriptions, reminders, safe administration
๐Ÿฒ Nutrition & Mealtimes โ€“ preparing nutritious meals, considering dietary needs
๐Ÿก Housekeeping โ€“ light cleaning, laundry, tidying

๐Ÿ“ Documentation โ€“ accurate record keeping
๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Safety & Emergency Response โ€“ creating safe environments, acting quickly when needed
๐Ÿค Collaboration โ€“ working closely with colleagues, professionals, and families

๐Ÿฆธ What Youโ€™ll Need (Besides a Cape and Superpowers!)

Hold onto your hats โ€” ideally, youโ€™ll have at least 6 months of social care experience to join our merry band of care crusaders!

But hereโ€™s the truth: what matters most to us is your heart of gold and your ability to sprinkle kindness wherever you go. Youโ€™ll need to be as resilient as a rubber band and as eager to learn as a curious kitten. Donโ€™t worry โ€” weโ€™ll help you level up your skills and knowledge as part of our close-knit (and delightfully quirky) team.

While experience is a bonus, weโ€™re really looking for people who:

๐Ÿ’™ Have compassion oozing from every pore
๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Can communicate like a UN diplomat
๐Ÿงฉ Possess problem-solving powers that would impress Mother Teresa
๐Ÿ‘ต Are committed to respectful, high-quality care that would make your gran proud
