Live-in Carer (OR Sleep-in / Day Care) Required for Immediate start - Nr Crediton, Devon.
Hello!
I currently provide care for an elderly married husband and wife and we need some extra support, with immediate effect.
You will ideally have End Of Life / Palliative Care experience as well as a good level of understanding of Alzhiemers Care.
Their house is situated outside of Crediton so being a driver is essential. There is a household car that can be used too.
You will need to be comfortable with cigarette smoke inside the house.
Manual Handling / Medication Administration / First Aid - essential training certification required please.
You will be joining a well established care team of private self-employed carers - so in house training and the opportunity of shadowing will be provided to ensure you fully grasp the care routine and feel confident and settled.
We are all a lovely bunch with person-centred care being our main ethos - the clients are wonderful to work for and we all care very much - you will be joining a happy and motivated team.
The house environment is calm, quiet and very relaxed but please note the work is nursing care, busy and sometimes demanding in terms of personal care and dementia support in an old quirky Devon long house!
There is one wake up a night, generally at 01:30/02:00, care routine starts at 07:00 and generally finishes at 21:30. With a two hour break within those times, down time in the afternoon and support from another carer from 09:00-14:00 Mon to Sun.
Set in 14acres of stunning countryside - there is access to the paddocks and orchard in your free time.
If you feel interested and would like to know more please feel free to contact me on : 07712454727
I am acting on behalf of the family and the clients daughter.
Rates of pay can be negotiated on contact, we welcome your suggestions to charging rates.
💞 look forward to hearing from you 💞
